Inspired by some cool antique keys and escutcheons (key hole covers) I found, I made soap molds so I could have vintage themed soap. Learn how easy it is in this episode of Soap Queen TV!
Get everything you need to make this project with the click of a button!
What You’ll Need:
Flexy Fast Molding Putty (available in single or multiple serving sizes)
8 oz Clear Melt & Pour
8 oz White Melt & Pour
Want to see this soap in real life? Well you can! Get your very own bar in our Etsy shop, includes full-color printed instructions.
This looks phenomenal!! I love antique/Victorian things and this fits right into that theme. I might just have to get me some of that flexy putty taffy stuff?
Peace,
Scherry
Good morning, Scherry!
Flexy Fast is such a great tool for any soaper that is wanting to make their own customized molds. If you want to learn more about making your own molds, I’d suggest watching the following Soap Queen TV episode that Anne-Marie uses the Flexy Fast to make some super cute back-to-school soaps.

Those look beautiful!
Does the mica set into the soap? Or does it rub off on your hands when you use the soap – do you know?
Thanks, Robin
Good morning, Robin!
Unfortunately, the mica does come off within 2-3 uses of the soap and is there for decoration purposes only. If you want it to set into the soap a bit more, you can try add in the mica while the soap is hardening up. I hope this helps! 🙂

I haven’t worked with micas yet, but will the metallic micas stain the hands or body?
