When I was younger, my mother would take all of the slivers of soap bars that were left over, and boil them down in a pot. Once the soaps melted she would form the liquid into bars, and we would have new soap!
Since having shoulder surgery 8 wks ago my sweet husband had to transport me to $tree so I could purchase 3 jars and 3tubular candles for my Bible study ladies. He asked me what I was going to make. When I said make candles, he could not stop laughing!😂 “ your going to buy candles to make candles? “. I proudly said “Yes I am”. I could just hear him now when I buy soap to make soap! Hahaha. Great idea!
Missing thank you so much for sharing your story carefully you are on the mend. Also blessings to your husband for indulging you and your hobby, may you both laugh together for many more years and I hope your Bible study group enjoyed and respected the labor that it took to make their gifts be blessed and take care
This DIY soaper is going to give a few tips to anyone wanting to try this. 1) I would transfer ingredient list to the tag somewhere 2) please don’t use actual cinnamon… your recipients delicate areas will burn. 3) Using a course salt is a great exfoliant. 4) whatever appliances you use to cook be sure to clean extremely well before placing food in them again. This is a fun project and might actually get you all interested into truly soaping and making bars gentle on skin
@@pamwood3956 in normal soap making where the lye hasn’t processed yet, no you cannot interchange between food usage and soap making. However, with this project the lye has already processed so it should be ok. However, if this becomes something you do often then I would dedicate your items to soap making and get new for food. Just using 1 or 2 shouldn’t be a problem and washing thoroughly along with sanitizing option on a dishwasher should be sufficient.
That was a fun project❤ May the Lord put a hedge of protection over Ray and your family. May the Lord bless you today and every day and get you through your trials.
Kelly, this has been a very painful year for you and your family. May God heal Ray and the rest of your family. God never tires of us reaching out to Him for help.
I must say girlfriend after watching numerous videos of soap making, you hit the nail on the head with this one. This is the most perfect and easiest way to make soap just for yourself and not selling it. Love, love, love,. Thank you so much for this genius idea.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I can’t wait to try this! I sent my husband to the store for the soap so I can add it to the “back to school” baskets I’m making for him to give his fellow teachers, administrative staff, etc. Tuesday. Because of my health I just couldn’t get it all done before Christmas. I think the peppermint soap will pit it over the top. Thanks again!
Ooh! I might have to do this! I can add this to a gift basket with homemade sugar scrub, a loofah sponge, and bath brush! Thanks for a great last minute gift idea!
I "created a monster" one year by making soap and everyone wanted it again. At DT the Shugar Soapworks lemon soap is a large bar sand so well-scented it's good to melt/mold for gifts.
Not only did we use ivory soap flakes and water, but we also rolled them into balls and made “guest soaps“ and put them in a bowl on the back of the toilet for our guests. We also added some food grade food coloring (very little goes A LONG Way) if you find that you have not made it enough to make it as sick as you wanted because your crockpot is too small or you only chopped up three bars or whatever, you can always go back and add a second layer. This looks rustic/high end decorative
You are a wizard queen, pure and simple! I love these! So many occasions you can make these for! Healing and loving hugs to Ray and your darling family.
I love the perfection of in perfect items the rustic look really have the purpose for earth both mentally and emotionally and certainly creativity thank you so much for sharing take care be blessed
Wonderful ideas, sad though that more people don't bother to hit the thumbs up button. You're appreciated every day for the creative and fun projects you offer to inspire us. Best sent to you and yours daily.
What a great idea for someone who cares enough to do a hand crafted gift. “ a gift with a story”. This is my motto for my little business Oh-Made Canada. 🇨🇦
Jergens really is an old fashion soap anyway. I remember my grandmother, she used to buy and use Jergens soap and hand lotion when I was a little girl, and I am 66 now. That makes this DIY even more old fashion and rustic to me. Thanks, love this soap making hack. You could even use other molds and make different shapes.
It's the only soap we use. All the others have that antibacterial stuff in them. Our hands break out and itch terribly. We love the scent Jergens has too.
I can’t wait to try this! I went to 3 Dollar Tree stores looking for bottles to make some extracts and no one had any. One employee told me someone came in yesterday morning and bought all they had, 10! I bet she watched your video! Thanks for all of your inspiration and prayers continue for Ray and your family.
I absolutely love this DIY Kelly! You're the best, honestly. I've been praying for Ray, and asking all my prayer warriors to do as well! I'm also sending you positivity and strength. God sees you! Sending love from northern MN.
So fun! Do let folks know to unwrap the bars and let them cure for several weeks before using them~ the bar will last longer and the lavender and oatmeal won’t get moldy in the packaging. 🙂
Kelly this is amazing that I found this video. So easy to make the soap and economical, I make washcloths so this would be a perfect addition. Once again thank you
I’ve always loved the light clean scent of Jergens bar soap. I started using it back in the 80’s because of allergies. It’s nice to see someone using the soap 🧼 ❤❤❤.. oh and love lavender scent.💜💜💜💜..
Amazing project KellyI LOVE these! I am a hobbiest making my own soap… this is soooo much easier and quick to do ! I simply need to try this! TYSMFS!!! Continued prayers for you, Ray, and your family! God is so Good… all the time! Keep your chin up so that you can praise Him!❤️😘🙏
Love this was trying to figure out what to do as last minute gifts for people who have everything and I didn't want to do a gift card. Homemade/handmade gifts are always my choice. Thanks for this idea.
I’ve been loving these ‘Homemade’ DIYs!🥰 I had a friend that made soap and she grated hers on a cheese grater.😁🤷🏻♀️ she said it made her soap smoother and not have chunks in it, but I wouldn’t mind the chunks I think it’s rustic lol😂❤
I love your crafting - you make beautiful items. I am not as gifted as you but this will go on my “I can do this” list. I am wondering if I could do it with something to add a little moisturizing effect along with the exfoliation of the oats. Love watching you even though I can’t do a lot of them - patience challenged.
How this is amazing DIYs, those little ice cubes trays might work they have jingle bells and others they’re tiny but would be adorable! Thanks for your amazing ideas! Bless your family!
This is awesome! Your size of the soap bars don't have to be large, they could even be small. Make it however you want. I love what you did. Thank you for sharing this great idea. Blessings to you Kelly! ❤
Thank you so much for this amazing video. I'm totally going out to get some soap and all the goodness to recreate these bars. These are super amazing. Who would have thought!!! Thank you so very much for making me KB CRAFTER OF THE DAY!!! I Appreciate it so much! Positive energy, hope, love, and continued prayers for you, the girls and ray! Still praying for good news on the pet scan! God bless you all ♥️
I think using the double boiler method would be easier to work with . Adding essential oils and vitamin E and a carrier oil instead of water . Your idea has so many beautiful options 🎉🎉🎉🎉!
I have never made soap before, but this looks so easy and fun to do! Lavender is my favorite scent and I love the wrappings. This I've got to try! I pray that Ray's treatments are going well with minimal side effects and you're all staying strong for each other. Love and prayers to you all. 💙🙏🎄

Wow Kelly what a super cool idea love it thank you for sharing this wonderful oh my goodness still loving and praying for you and your family!!!God Bless you all!!!🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi there this looks fun. I melt down bar soap sometimes with a little bit of water to make shower cream soap. I found that calendula petals work well because they don't rehydrate like other botanicals and get that brown color which is actually I think the flower going bad but I'm not sure.
Hi Kelly ~ I love this idea with the soap, I used to make soap with shea butter added but I have to say you have to watch with cinnamon as it can burn your skin. Ground almonds is a good exfoliant also~ Thanks so Much for sharing~Awesome idea~~I pray for Ray and your Family so all goes well~~ God Bless~ Terri
What a great idea. I didn’t know you could just melt down regular soap instead buying soap making supplies. I’m going to try this for a bridal shower. 👍
This would be wonderful for tiny feet that have been walking in the grass or sand in summer or little hands that made mud pies! Love this … thank you! Hope your family is doing well as can be.
This was so amazing Kelly, you are the goddess of DIY! Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas, sending you all some positive vibes and tons of blessings. You are so wonderful!
When they're that slim and rectangular you could also trim off the edges to square it and then cut them into two little square bars, kind of like Hotel soap.
Kelly you have outdone yourself I have always wanted to make my own homemade bar soap I love this idea I can’t wait to make some live all your ideas you are such a blessing and inspiration lots of love to you and your family can’t wait to try this
This is a nice idea for gifts to my neighbors. You never know if sugar goods are ok but homemade soaps are perfect. You and your family are always in my prayers.

The rustic soap idea is marvelous. Can’t wait to try it.
By the way, your hands are gorgeous! You should be a hand model!
So funny!
Hope you are doing ok. Merry Christmas
This DIY soaper is going to give a few tips to anyone wanting to try this. 1) I would transfer ingredient list to the tag somewhere 2) please don’t use actual cinnamon… your recipients delicate areas will burn. 3) Using a course salt is a great exfoliant. 4) whatever appliances you use to cook be sure to clean extremely well before placing food in them again.
This is a fun project and might actually get you all interested into truly soaping and making bars gentle on skin
Thank you for the tips. I was wondering if the items used for this could still be used for food.
@@pamwood3956 in normal soap making where the lye hasn’t processed yet, no you cannot interchange between food usage and soap making. However, with this project the lye has already processed so it should be ok. However, if this becomes something you do often then I would dedicate your items to soap making and get new for food. Just using 1 or 2 shouldn’t be a problem and washing thoroughly along with sanitizing option on a dishwasher should be sufficient.
I agree with not using "hot" essential oils such as cinnamon, thyme, clove and Oregano for any products that comes in contact with skin.
I think I would worry about oatmeal and lavender clogging the sink or shower drain.
@@amandahamm624 thank you for the information ❤
That was a fun project❤ May the Lord put a hedge of protection over Ray and your family. May the Lord bless you today and every day and get you through your trials.

You are the best DIYr on UA-cam! We love you. You’re so strong. God bless you.
I find that if you use a cheese grater instead of cutting the soap it works better. Thanks, Kelly for the diy.
I was thinking that grating the soap might get it finer before trying to melt it.
@@annseabolt6645 Good idea.
