How to make easy soap molds

Step 3Mold your objects

Once the mix is ready, you have about 15 minutes to get it around the object you are going to use. The best method is to roll a ball of it up, so you don't have any seams, then press the object into the ball.
Remember to leave enough room on one side to get your object out.I also recommend that you have enough of the mix at the bottom of your object that you can press the molding ball against a flat surface to create a flat bottom.A flat bottom makes pouring things into the mold considerably easier.
Here are three things we have molded; the two rocks are opening side down, so as to expose as much of the mold to the air as possible, and the shell is open side up, to create as steady a flat bottom as possible.
