Too funny! Candid is so refreshing when everyone out there is trying to fool us into thinking they do lists of flawless projects. :) Thank you!

Just put a couple inches of water in a sauce pan, set a glass bowl with the ingredients you want to melt in it on top of the sauce pan and then turn the heat on. As the water under the bowl heats up it will melt your beeswax, etc. Test the fit of your bowl on the pan before you start just in case ;) I do this all the time when I make all the stuff I sell in my Etsy shop (SimplyBeeInspired). Good luck!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01798996061128370388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6555598626855902713.post-42860511782230139722014-01-27T21:07:45.887-06:002014-01-27T21:07:45.887-06:00Thanks!

One end is on the eye of the stove (I have a ceramic top), and the other end has all my ingredients in a glass container. The heat from the eye keeps the water warm without burning all your expensive crap. This recipe rocks, btw! I'm making insect repellant lotion bars for my Etsy this week!! <br /><br />Also, I've read this post more than necessary because it brightens my day when I have shea butter and coconut oil up to my elbows :)Jessica Connorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12487458118889572257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6555598626855902713.post-91162751096369053562013-07-15T08:29:26.595-05:002013-07-15T08:29:26.595-05:00I'm glad I'm not the only one!

IN MY DEFENSE, I know exactly how you feel. When we got married, a friend gave me a gift basket that included a one-inch-think circle of loofah with lime soap in it. It was AWESOME for exfoliating, and I've been on the lookout for another one for years. I finally decided I could buy a loofah, cut it into pieces, and then pour melted soap in it.... but I don't have a double boiler, either, and the process went something like what you've described here. I didn't cut myself, but i did end up with burns. The things work, but because of the way the soap did, well, they don't work as well as I want them to.
