Don't worry about having no moulds Melissa.....  I think most of us use old packaging (boxes, pringles tubes, food containers, baking tins etc....).  As for bodging things up, have you seen our 'Croap Gallery'? :mwaha:

  Thanks for that, I was just looking for it!  I think its a really good idea, its good to know that others make mistakes too!
  Thanks for the thread on how to change your username, I just managed to change mine - I hate my surname - it makes me sound like a right pillock.

Few people like their surnames  :mwaha:  You are most welcome anyway  Wink

Oh...  and do go and have a read of Jojo's Funny Soap Tale (such a giggle).  You can access that from the home page.  That is also very comforting (although your ribs may ache a little from giggling)

She certainly is a giggle...  But actually, her so called 'croaps' are not so croapy as she thinks  Wink

  I am sure I will have plenty of croaps myself soon!  How do you manage to look so glamorous, is it all the natural body products you use!  I'm afraid at the age of 32 and after two kids I am a bit of a croap myself!!!!

However when you get to 60 you're not so bothered (unless you're Joan Collins).

  Helen, you've made me feel even worse, I thought maybe you looked so good because a) you were in your twenties, and b) you hadn't gone through the horrors of childbirth - now I have found out that you have!!
  And JoJo - I thought your poem was brilliant, I am not brave enough to attempt anything other than melt and pour soap, which I shall try when I get some bigger moulds. But after my bath bomb fiasco - I can't get the buggers out of the mould, (I will have to wait until I get a bath and then put them in moulds and all), I don't hold out much hope for any other creations.
