The New Soap Cutter!

Just got the new soap cutter in this weekend, and I can’t wait to use it. For some reason, don’t ask me why, cutting soap has always been the bane of soap making. I was using a plastic Craftsman miter box with a block of wood clamped in place as a stop and would cut with a wooden handle straight blade cutter. I know it wasn’t beautiful, but it did the job. Necessity is the mother if invention anyway. So a few weeks ago I was telling my mother about how much I hate cutting soap and she said, “If there’s a process that you hate, you have to find another way to do it.” She is also a crafter, (scrapbooks, cards, rubber stamps, paints, etc…) not to mention my mother, so I value her advice. I checked some cutters out online before and they are all quite expensive. She asked me what it would take to make the job easier and I told her a lot of $$$. The conversation eventually ended and I went back to work. Well a few minutes later the phone rang and it was my mom again. She said that she had talked with my dad and they decided to give me the money for a new soap cutter. I couldn't believe it. Once again my needs are being taken care of in ways that I never expect. I don’t think that I could have more supportive parents than the ones I have now. I truly appreciate all that they do for me.
Thank you Mom and Dad!
