[Nfb-krafters-korner] soap

[Lindy van der Merwe]

Hi Vickie, congratulations on your soap project. I am glad you and your 
husband both enjoyed helping each other.
Can you perhaps describe your mold a bit more? Does it make bars of soap 
with the flower imprint on the bar, and what is meant by a 5 in 1 mold?
I am just interested.
I will write about my soap-making project in another mail.
Nice meeting you at class and thanks for sharing.
Lindy
