Step Five: It’s time to unmold your DIY gradient soap bars! WOW!

Supplies: clear & white melt and pour soap, non-bleeding colorants (you will need at least 2 for the gradient effect), rectangular silicone soap mould, fragrance oil, spray bottle filled with rubbing alcohol microwave safe bowl, spoon and knife, slim book to use as a riser

Step 1: Cut up 1/2 cup of clear soap and melt it for 15-20 seconds in the microwave. Stir and microwave again if needed to just melt the soap but don’t let it boil. Add your colorant (I used a tiny sliver of a solid block colorant, but a few drops of liquid colorant also works), and stir to combine.

Step 2: Tip your mold up using a slim book on each end, and pour your soap into 1 side of each rectangle mold until it reaches about 3/4 of the way to other side. Now spray rubbing alcohol to get rid of any air bubbles and smooth out soap. Repeat the rest of your soap and mould cavities. Let soap cool for 20 mins.

Step 3: Repeat melting and coloring step with another 1/2 cup of clear soap and new color. Remove book riser from under mold, spritz the soap with more rubbing alcohol, and pour in your next color on the opposite side of the first color until it comes about 3/4 of the way up on the first color.

Step 4 Part 1: Let your new layer of soap cool for 20 minutes. Once cool, cut up 3-4 cups of your white soap into 1″ chunks, and melt in the microwave in 20 second intervals until just melted. Stir to make sure all the pieces are melted, and then add in a few drops of your fragrance oil.

Step 4 part 2: Spritz the gradient soap in the mold with more rubbing alcohol and pour on your white soap until it reaches the top of the mold. Let this white soap cool over night or for at least a few hours.

I love to go down to the schoolyard and watch all the little children jump up and down and run around yelling and screaming. They don't know I'm only using blanks.

Relying too much on proof distracts you from the real missionwhich is emotional connection.

I didn't want to spend my life contributing to the development of more atomic weaponry.

I've had experiences in my life that leave no doubt in my mind about the fact that God exists. I'm quite willing to debate people who don't think so because I want them to explain to me how did our solar system get so organized and how is the universe so complex and yet well-organized that we can predict 70 years hence when a comet is coming?

I think we are going to see exciting cricket all the way. We are watching the two best teams in the world-and I think England will eventually go on to pip Australia by a single Test.

When it comes down to it, I'm thinking about football all the time. When I'm on the golf course, I'm thinking about it. It's never out of your brain.

I am a Christian; God sent me to fight evil for my people. Jesus was a revolutionist; so am I.

You can't party all the time - especially in January!

I tend to view my life as an accident, almost as a dream.

I'm married to Ferrari.

If you can't believe, you can't achieve.

When you're writing plays, it's possible to believe you don't have any real world skill. When you're adapting, it is really all about the mechanics, so you feel closer to, I don't know, an accountant or someone who has a body of information. It's not all about temperament.

I'm just a huge fan of smells, first of all. I have a bit of an obsession with smells.

If you want to thrive in today's economy, you must challenge the status quo and get the financial education necessary to succeed.

If you want to know what love is, have a child. If you want to know what pain is, bury him.

In my head, at least, the business of spinning stories has no closing time. Twists in my characters' lives, glimpses of their secrets, obstacles to their dreams... all arrive unbidden when I'm getting cash at the ATM, walking my son to camp, singing a hymn at a wedding.

Whoever says Friendship is easy has obviously never had a true friend

Indeed My Lord is near and Responsive.

Grooming is 10 times more important than makeup. I use a hair gloss with a teeny bit of color in it that makes my hair very shiny.

The subject of criminal rehabilitation was debated recently in City Hall. It's an appropriate place for this kind of discussion because the city has always employed so many ex-cons and future cons.

One thing about me is I try to be honest.

The License Raj in India was a time when, to set up an industry, you needed a license. Which made the government an omnipresent and sort of all-pervasive authority.

I don't think Lloyd's of London would insure this mouth.

As a tactic, violence is absurd. No one can compete with the Government in violence, and the resort to violence, which will surely fail, will simply frighten and alienate some who can be reached, and will further encourage the ideologists and administrators of forceful repression.
