Now that we have the design, it is time to decide what kind of product we are making, are we going to make a glycerin-based soap or cold process? Glycerin-based soap can be used for more intricate designs while cold process can tell a story with shapes and color. Once we pick, it's time to gather supplies, including silicone molds for designs. If we can't find them, we make them!

For cold process soaps, we add sodium hydroxide dissolved in water or other liquids such as beer or aloe water and combine it with our mixture of oils to create soap. Once mixed we can then add our fragrance and colors and pour them into molds. After sitting in the mold overnight, they are removed and then cut into bars and set to dry on a drying rack for 6 weeks.

Next step is packing and labeling. Once cold process soaps are cured, we print and cut out labels and place them on the soaps. For glycerin-based soaps we wrap them with shrink wrap and then add sticker labels to them.
