Hello everybody and welcome to La Fille
de la Mer, Handmade Soap Shop in the
Magdalen Islands. My name is Ariane Arsenault
and today I'm going to show you
how I line my wooden soap molds. The
first thing I recommend is that when you
choose a slab mold, whether it's wood or
HDPE plastic or whatever the material is,
just make sure that it is cold process
soap safe. I always like to buy or
or you can make it yourself
a soap mode that is 14 inches wide.
The reason for this is, I'm
going to show you, the freezer paper that
I use is 24 inches wide which is perfect
to line 14 inch wide soap molds. This
is what I get, you buy a stand and then
this is the 24 inches wide freezer paper!
Tt's very practical to have the stand as
you can just roll the paper out, trim
and cut it right on the stand. It's heavy!
Buying such a big roll of freezer paper
can be quite expensive but they will
last you practically forever! Well not
forever but my first roll lasted for a
couple years and I've been on my second
year with this one: if you're a small
scale hobbyist soapmaker you will have
some freezer paper to line your soap
molds for a long time so it's a
good return on investment! Whatever the
length of your soap mold as long as it's
14 inches wide: those are inside
measurements, I measure my freezer paper
10 inch longer than the length so if
your mold is 16 inches long, then you're
going to cut at 26 inches.
I'm gonna have to fold this paper to fit
it into my wooden mold and I am going to
trace with a marker just a little dot, or
pen whatever, at FIVE INCHES from the
side and I always like to do a couple
ahead of time so I don't need to do this
process every time I make a batch of soap.
I'm just going to fold on the dot
and I need to be aligned if I want
everything to be straight. All right
again take the ruler, take your marker
and just trace another small dot at five
inches from the other side and I fold
again. Now I will repeat the process with
all of my sheets and then I will show
you how I line my mold. You should be
folding the glossy side up because this
is the side that will be in contact with
the cold processed soap. My mold opens
like this, there are different types of
mold, so I just swing open the door
I place one of the folded papers that has
been folded on two sides with
the paper right in the corner and I will
show you better... Okay like this and then
I make it fit and I fold again. Then
I do the same thing for the excess. Fold
it back in along the edge of the paper!
It's like doing origami I just lift up
each corner and I place the other
corner inside of the other one just like
this and I pinch to form a triangle and
you kind of have to pinch it very neatly
so that it doesn't make a bump into
your soap. I do the same for every
corner: put both corners together or both
folded lines and then pinch to form a
triangle. And I fold very neatly! Now the fourth
corner.
Okay now once this is done, with some
scissors I just cut the part that is
above the soap mold like this and I
fold the paper along the edges of the
mold and voila! The mold is ready
to make soap in!
Now removing the freezer paper, you will
be able to see that the edges of the soap
are all nice and neat!
thank you so much for watching this video!
