Please help I need answers fast!?
Question:Tomarrow we are having a garage sale, and I am making soap. I have made soap before, but I am going to put real flower blossoms in it. Is there anything found at home that I can seal the blossom with so it doesn't turn brown in the soap? Also is there anything I can put in the soap to reduce air bubbles on the top?? I need help! Thanks
Answers:
the best way to avoid air bubbles is to tap the trays lightly after you pour. Just shake them a bit and tap them the way you would an ice tray to get ice out.
As for the flower blossoms... you need to use dried flowers. If you put real flowers in them, they will inevitably rot or turn brown. There really is nothing you can do to avoid that unless they are dry.
If you want to dry the blossoms out quickly, lay them out on paper towels, spray with a bit of hairspray, and set a fan blowing on them, or set them close to but not directly under a heater. The hairspray will help them retain their shape and color.
That's a really cool idea.
