In the book it says to wrap them in a towel. So I put a towel on an old tray, stack the blocks and wrap them in the towel - and put them in a drawer - see my website libby for pictures and links to my old blog which shows you.

~Well Libby, are you pleased with your results. I think they look brilliant - you are a natural.

When are you going to visit your mum 'up north' will the soap have cured in time?

My latest batch of soaps - just out of the moulds and now wrapped up and stored till cured.

A variation of MC's Castille soap - using unrefined palm oil - which is yellow becuase I could not get white

Well I never did get around to making baby soap - but there is always next year

I have just been wrapping up the soaps that I did make, ready for adding to Christmas hampers and for presents.

What about you Libby - have you wrapped yours yet?
