Oh my gosh thank heavens for this video at this time! I have been struggling with label design for 3 full days! Thank you for all that you do ❤ ! Your videos are most helpful to me! This one is just priceless to me! With in ten minutes of watching I was able to find Avery and design a very nice lable for my Soaps!

You are so welcome!🌻

What preservative do u use for ypur soap

[@SargentBubblescom]

Thanks for doing this, Anna. The labels trip me up every time but the way you did it makes perfect sense. I need to start buying Avery labels instead of off-brand or from the soap company because I can never get their templates to work properly. You made this seem quick and easy - a blessing when you have a ton of soap to label! I hope you and your family are well. Another informative video!

[@koalasoap8435]

Glad it was helpful!

[@cheryl739]

You can also get Avery labels through Amazon, but you will still need to go to Avery to design and print yourself. Love Avery! They have been my label go to for 5 yrs. Excellent customer service and customer support! Those do look lovely all wrapped. 💕

[@chrisharrison5974]

[@bridgetwhite3085]

Thanks!!! This was very helpful. 😊

[@punkprincess8259]

Great video that you fou showing us how to make labels

[@plurmingo1]

At the top there is a “center all” button so you don’t have to center each one. Thanks for sharing.

[@koalasoap8435]

Thanks for the tip!

[@fifimorrison1804]

I LOVE that you showed all of this. I had questions for both of these things. Do you know how much those big sealers are?

[@koalasoap8435]

Hello, The links for the sealer are in the description. Thanks for your kind words.

What is the log sizes? I bought a loaf set from Amazon but it looks kind of small. When I made my very first melt and pour log today

[@belushiladymomomona]

For melt & pour...Does the ingredients have to b listed?

[@ACole-to3ij]

How long can you store the soap wrapped like that ?

[@MissDEATHMAKER_]

Are these stickers? Thank you😁

[@Kittyboo14]

Where can i get a low sweat from?

[@darlenewilson160]

What is the earliest I can make soap for Christmas? How long will shrink wrapped soap last?

[@koalasoap8435]

Usually MP soap has a shelf life of 1-2 years, as long as it is wrapped air tight.

[@sl4983]

@@koalasoap8435 what happens after that length of time?

[@lilyh5413]

Thank you for such an informative video. I have two question, will melt and pour always sweat unless it's wrapped. When unwrapped will it sweat again If I leave it in the shower? Thank You.

[@sl4983]

Not always, and no

[@tcooper802]

Can anyone please tell me about the labels ? Do you print on regular paper or is it like a sticker?

[@sl4983]

.

[@sl4983]

Are the labels peel and stick?

[@tracymore760]

What do you think about the shrink bands instead of the bags, I’ve never used either but want to start. Thanks

[@koalasoap8435]

I think shrink bands are for jars and containers. I have used them for that and they work very well.

[@unique4532]

Do you put every single ingredient ??

[@hirenprabtani8796]

Nice

[@leticiaortiz3908]

you can buy the labels directly from Avery they are cheaper than amazon at least for me i find them cheaper

[@trinaedwards8182]

Are you in Aussie land

[@koalasoap8435]

No, I am in the USA. Koala comes from the fact my mother loves Koala Bears.

[@FullerLifeFL]

What setting on the gun, please?

[@koalasoap8435]

You can do low or high setting. IF you are just starting to learn the heat gun, then I would start low. It will just shirk slower but you will get the same result.

[@solargirl7329]

@@koalasoap8435 can you use a blow dryer?

[@india3088-l8t]

@@solargirl7329 yes. I tried it and it works.

[@WildlyWonderfulCrafts]

If an IFRA fragrance usage rate is 1% for cold process soap, what would it be for melt and pour?

[@OrgyBlossom89]

.25oz per lb of melt and pour. :)

[@unique4532]

@@OrgyBlossom89so how many drops of oils would you say that is ??

[@OrgyBlossom89]

@@unique4532 like 148 drops. You're better off buying large qty of oils and measuring by weight.

[@JessicaB81]

But you can’t smell product through pvc shrink wrap bags , unfortunately. And I’ve bought the polyefin kind which descriptions will say that you can smell the soap through, and even after being in bag for a week I can’t smell soap through it. Only thing that works for me is Saran Wrap using a heat gun to melt it closed and throwing a label on it :(

[@unique4532]

You don’t like sarin wrap ? Or you just Worry about the smell being smelled?

[@sl4983]

The intro is markedly louder than the video.
