There are tons of cute speciality molds you can buy online for your soap. But sometimes it’s more fun (and economical) to improvise with things you already have. Here are some ideas of things you can use as a soap mold:

Food trays - you can then cut the bars to whatever size you want

Leggs pantyhose egg

Candy molds

Gelatin molds

PVC tubes

Candle molds

Sardine cans

Almost anything! Just remember that you want something that won’t melt under the heat of the soap when it’s first poured in. You also want something somewhat flexible to make it easier to get the soap out once it hardens. If in doubt, rub the mold down with Vaseline before adding the soap. This will make the soap easier to remove later.
