Insert the scrubbies into the molds, making sure that the nylon is evenly distributed around the inside of the mold.

Cut up, weigh and melt your melt and pour soap base.

I'm using white melt and pour soap base for the snowman and clear base for the reindeer.

These molds took about 9.5 oz. of soap each.

You can estimate how much soap you're going to need by pouring water into the mold (with the scrubbie in it) and measuring how much water it will hold. If you're doing more than one soap, just multiply the amount by the number of soaps you are going to make.
