Excerpt
Chapter 5 ~ Types of Soap Molds
...This is only part of the chapter...
There are several shapes and sizes that you can mold your soap bars into from rounds to flowers to traditional rectangular bars. Plastic molds are easy to locate. Wal-Mart, Target, Dollar stores, and many discount stores all carry soap molds just waiting to be used. If it's plastic, if it's microwavable and dishwasher safe, [even better!] it can be used to shape your kitchen or chef’s soap bars. You can order molds online or find them at crafts and candle supply stores and shows/fairs. Microwavable containers, food containers, candle molds, or even drawer organizers can be used. If you're concerned how your finished bar[s] of melt and pour soap look, keep in mind that the molds should have a smooth interior surface as this type of soap is notorious for picking up shapes.
However, since writing my first melt and pour soap crafting book, I’ve noticed that plastic food containers have gotten lighter and flimsier. This is very apparent in water bottles with smaller caps and much lighter weight bodies that are easy to crush. I understand the reasoning behind this. Less plastic is being used. But now you can only use many food storage containers once and then it’s off to the recycling bin.
Although you can easily obtain inexpensive molds, if you want to continue to use the same mold[s] or will be doing a lot of soap crafting, flimsy plastic containers won't last that long.
Molds that are made exclusively for soap crafting, such as the Milky Way mold, are easy to use and you'll enjoy the impressive end results. For soap crafting, these molds are sturdy, have numerous designs and shapes, and are reasonably priced.
