I actually get all of my soap labels printed professionally now. Since making this video, I realised how important my time is, so I outsource all printing. Boxes are also an option that helps to save a lot of time.
Thanks for the update. We recently started using the same sort of paper for packaging. We still make our own labels though. Would you be willing to share the actual size you cut to for the final wrap? I have bought several of your recipes on Etsy. Amazing.
You could add a color, maybe off the red wax, just by getting the boots in the wrapping paper printed a different color. Shouldn't cost any more. Maybe even get an assortment of colors still cheap because the colors would run consecutively, not simultaneously. I dunno, talk to your printer! I'm going to look into it myself.
BLESS YOU! I wrap my soap in brown lunch bags cut down to size with my logo attached with double sided tape and a wax seal for decoration. I was lighting the wax candles and dripping it on etc etc ETC. It looks great but what a pain not to mention my soap room smells like matches. Then you showed me the wax sticks! I just placed my order. I cannot thank you enough! THIS is why people ask about packaging. I learned a lot and you gained a subscriber!
I started with gift bags rom the Dollar Store, but it was hit and miss finding them. I then went to shrink warp, but didn’t like that it wasn’t always smooth and folks couldn’t smell the soap without cutting off the ends. I then picked up some wax paper sheets...OMG, I LOVE them! But my concern is falling in love with a design and then one day not being able to get it again. Didn’t even think of having the paper printed, so thank you for that. As for labels...... At first I was adamant about printing my own for some of the reasons stated...wait times, small batches, etc, but I use the same recipe for all my Goat Milk Soap, so it would be nice to have preprinted sheets where all I had to do was add the name of the soap depending on the scent used.
Luckily for you in the states the rules and regs aren't so crazy as over here. We have to label each batch individually with batch codes etc. It's nuts x
FuturePrimitive Soap Company - True...the laws regarding ‘soap’ fall under the jurisdiction of the CPSC (consumer protection a safety commission) instead of the FDA (food and drug administration) and even if your soap crosses over to a ‘cosmetic’ under the FDA, the laws are fairly loose so long as your color additives meet safety guidelines. Where it starts getting restrictive is when you start making ‘drug’ claims, then you have to be licensed, your products have o be submitted. I’m still debating how far beyond ‘soap’ I want to go, though I have already started with Lotion Bars and Salt Soaps. Thing is, I don’t want to have a ton of different ingredients or set ups...such as you would need with bath bombs and liquid lotions and bar shampoos.
Cute video Tiggy. I love your packaging. I have been a soap maker for 20 years now and I must have packaged my soaps at least 20 different ways. I do not like soap boxes and refuse to use them. I also do not like shrink wrap or naked soaps. It is hard to find packaging that fits your look and budget. I do something similar to yours but I use vellum, as I am in the USA. I also let the top of my soaps stick out. I can gift wrap them by adding a ribbon over the vellum and around the soap before I add my label. I also put a wax seal on the back of my soaps where the label meets. I need to find a cheaper wax stick supplier though as it is very expensive to add the wax seal.
You are so sweet! Keeping it simple, old world in a way that is very nice! Staying true to you is worth every cent! Thanks for sharing☺ Have a lovely weekend❤🤗
I think the very first time I discovered you on TH-cam was because I saw an image of your seal. And I immediately went to your channel, because I also used a seal and I used the same colour wax (still do). I've been binging on your videos since. LOVE your channel and the little talks while you make. Quick little tip. If you have a piece of marble or granite, you can just place your seal on it between presses. The coolness of the stone cools the seal down enough to prevent sticking. Placing it on an ice pack also works, but I don't know if you have a freezer at your shop to store an icepack. So, you can give the marble or granite a try if you'd like.
Still watching the video- which is great but I have to say, your makeup in on point today! Eyebrows are gorgeous! Btw- I like this like the change up on this video.
Hi Tiggy, your package is truly stellar. I was wondering if you could possible share what type of printer you are using to make your labels. If you could I would totally appreciate it.
I really do like your packaging. They look and feel very nice and professional when I unpack my order. The only downside is I cannot see the soap inside. So I am having to unpack all of them immediately.....And then I don't have the nice packaging to look at.....
I wanted to use a wax seal but haven’t figured out how to incorporate it. I use a very simple paper cigar wrapper then shrink wrap it. People love my packaging so I’m a little hesitant about changing or adding anything.
I love to watch you create your soaps! Fascinating! You mentioned the program you use for printing labels. I can't find any info on what to use to edit videos. Any tips?
We want to sell our soaps at our Market. Would it be better for the customer to be able to see the soaps rather than wrap in the paper then label. Wondering why some just use a band around the soap? Thank you for sharing your procedure, they're lovely soaps😃👍
Bibiane Sproule as a customer, yes I like to see what I’m buying. If the soap is wrapped than I won’t buy it cause I don’t know what I’m buying. This wrapping seems better when you have to ship it to a customer
You can always have a sample soap and packaged ones behind it. That way customers can smell and see it. That is what I plan to do when markets open where I'm from.
I would wrap the soaps and then have a sample bar available for customers to smell place the soap in a soap sac or organza bag so the customer can pick up and smell the soap..... if you have a station with water they can also try the bar of soap as well..... This has worked for me and I sell at vending shows and have been for over 10 yrs even with other vendors around I've sold the most....another suggestion would be to put your soaps in the bathrooms with your card attached for customers to use I've made plenty of sales that way.
brill! thanks for the tutorial...and here's sumink for you. to help keep your wax stamp cool, use aluminium! like a small flat pan or sumink. it will act as a heat sink and draw the higher temperature away from the brass... hope this helps!
Could you share with us the package title and label of the paper you order by 1000 sheets? Also the flex I stick labels on the brown craft paper? Maybe I can find them on amazon
I would also love to know where you get your peel and stick label sheets. I use photoshop and indesign to design my labels, then print on paper, and cut with a paper cutter.
Beautifully done! I am just getting started in my soaping adventures. I feel like creating the label has been the most daunting part! Where do you by your peel and stick labels?
I love it! As always, your soaps and products look amazing! I've been wanting to switch to paper and get away from the plastic shrink wrap. Thank you for sharing what you do, it's always fun to see how other makers do things.
Where do you get the long labels please? Can't seem to ever find any the right size for soap 🤦 we've been cutting and using card with a cricut but the sleeves slip..... Lol
So pretty! I have a little question im just starting out and this question i cant get anwserd: do you package your soap when its "cured" for 4/6weeks or do you package it right after you cut it?

Wow finally a UK channel! Happy to find you, subscribed. Thanks for the tips. Love the wax seal idea.
Thank you for showing us the wrapping process! Your soaps are beautifully wrapped and the whole package looks awesome
Looks wonderful and I love the old world feel that your paper, labels and stamp gives your packaging.
I just came to check out your packaging, I've never heard of your company before but your style looks awesome!
It’s just as satisfying as watching the soap cut. It’s all an experience enjoyed.
Love your packaging,it’s professional and the wax seal is a beautiful touch, it lets you know something really special inside.
Wax seal! That's brilliant! Very unique touch.
Love the old world stamping . Beautiful packaging
That's a beautiful wax seal logo Tiggy and your packaging is lovely!!
Agree with the in-house labels... Packaging is sometimes the motivator for shoppers and yours has always hit the spot!
Beautiful packaging, nice to see instead of reams of plastic like most people use.
Nice to meet you. Thanks for sharing. Very thorough. Packaging is a trial. I just want complete! So many skills.
As a newbie in soap wrapping,u have shown me a method that is easy n cost effective.thank u
Love the way you wrap your soaps!
I didn't know if wanted to use boxes wraps or bags I love yoir idea

This is late and probably not the same effect, but why not use colored hot glue and stamp it?
@@WEFAbender6 I never thought of that! I will check into to. I don't use hot glue that often so I never paid that much attention to it. Thank you!
Love the way you package!❤️
I keep a bowl of ice to cool the seal stamp off. I do use a spoon method but I melt the sticks in a mini electric skillet.
A lovely simple presentation LL x

Can you do a video where you wrap round soap or different shapes soap please?
Aliexpress have the wax really cheap. I use them all the time they are awesome
Love this video, new hobby for me. I wondered what went into this end of the business.
Thank you.
Fabulous wrapping ideas! Whenever I see a notification from yourself or Yellow Cottage Soapery, I know I'm in for a treat!! Love your vids!! ❤

Can u guide us to get our customised soap wrapping paper and labels .... Ur idea is fabulous....
brill! thanks for the tutorial...and here's sumink for you. to help keep your wax stamp cool, use aluminium! like a small flat pan or sumink. it will act as a heat sink and draw the higher temperature away from the brass... hope this helps!

I would also love to know where you get your peel and stick label sheets. I use photoshop and indesign to design my labels, then print on paper, and cut with a paper cutter.
Hello! Thanks for sharing. Question please. Could you direct me to a diy jar label template. Other then Avery? Thanks.
Sorry i can't. I don't use avery labels. I use publisher and create my own labels x
Very cool!
Where did you get your wrapping paper customized?
Beautifully done! I am just getting started in my soaping adventures. I feel like creating the label has been the most daunting part! Where do you by your peel and stick labels?
You can look online. Most paper companies sell sheets of sticker paper.
Amazon, Walmart, office depot the brand is Avery
And I feel you the packaging part is the worst specially when you want to be environmentally cautious
@@michellebetancourt6211 online Labels are cheaper than Avery. Amazon also sells off brand labels at a cheaper price.
It looks amazing
This was very helpful thank you
I love it! As always, your soaps and products look amazing! I've been wanting to switch to paper and get away from the plastic shrink wrap. Thank you for sharing what you do, it's always fun to see how other makers do things.
Where do you get the long labels please? Can't seem to ever find any the right size for soap 🤦 we've been cutting and using card with a cricut but the sleeves slip..... Lol
But where do you get the wrapping paper customized and made from?
Lovely 😊
Where did you order you wax label from again
Can we wrap melt and pour soaps this way??
If you use low sweat bases, you can. If not, you still can but shrink wrap first.
it's so pretty!!!!
How do you work out the please use before date?
Your assessor gives you that info x
Loving the video as always :) I'm loving your labels can I ask where you get them from?
hii, what is the type/material of the paper you use to wrap the soaps in?
Hi, where did you get your label paper from? I’ve never seen any paper like that.
Thank you for sharing 😊❤️👍
Love it 😍
How did you get your logo on the paper?
Hello Tiggy, for the flexi labels, do they ship to you quickly and do they offer waterproof and or oil proof labels.
Hi there, could you tell me where you sell your soaps. Just starting out not sure where to advertise. Tha kyou
On my website listed below and in my shop.
Like some of us had no clue what to put on the label other than company name and ingredientsuntil we watched this 😆
Nicely explained
What is the paper called?
If you put the wax seal on a damp paper towel it won't stick.
I have an updated packaging video where this is addressed.
So pretty! I have a little question im just starting out and this question i cant get anwserd: do you package your soap when its "cured" for 4/6weeks or do you package it right after you cut it?
if it’s cp soap always wait until it’s cured
Wax Paper?
I clicked to see the shroom craft wrap paper , looked again it’s a boot.. 😅
very good* ten points*
I thank you. *takes bow*
X que hablan tanto para hacer algo me desespera vallan al grano y listo
what kind of paper is that?
