This is only a suggestion; you can leave the paper plain, use one of the templates provided or make your one designs to print. The soap paper when finished will be cut into 1.7” x 0.7” pieces.

Step 9

Prepare Embed Paper for hanging (See notes below**)

Step 10

Cut and measure out 4 oz of MP soap base in a microwavable safe container.

Using a sheet pan or wax paper on counter, place one sheet of Embed Paper down.

Step 14

Pour approximately 1 oz of the soap on one side of the paper and spread evenly with a paint brush to coat the sheet (or pour at end of sheet and paint up). We found a foam brush works best.

Step 15

Carefully, pull up the paper by the attached clips or hanger and flip over. Pour another 1 oz of soap and spread to coat the backside of paper.

Step 16

Carefully pull up the paper again and hang where desired with the hanger or hang on the prepared dowels/skewers.
