Directions
1. Check the fit of your trinket in your mold. Make sure that it fits. You can use a yogurt container, a tofu container or a tupperware - just make sure your barrette or eraser or cute lip gloss container fit into the mold.
2. Cut the melt and pour blocks into 1 x 1" cubes.
3. Melt the soap in 30-second increments until the soap is fully melted.
4. Add .25 ounces to .50 ounces of fragrance or essential oil. Remember, if you use a yellow or orange colored fragrance, your soap base will look less clear and look more yellow/orange. You can use skin-safe glitter too.
5. Pour the soap base halfway up into your mold.
6. Spritz your barrette/trinket/eraser part with rubbing alcohol.
7. Embed your item into the soap.
8. Pour the rest of the soap all the way up. Tip: If you're doing another color in the back of your soap, allow your first clear layer to harden before pouring the second, colored layer. Make sure that you use only food or soap safe colorants (like food coloring, micas, or Labcolors).

Wait for the soap to harden, wrap with saran wrap, label and enjoy the appreciation of your tweenager.
