Goldfish in a Bag Soap

4 ounces Soap Crafters Clear Melt & Pour soap
2 Vinyl Goldfish
1 Baggie or Small Cello Bag
1 Twist Tie
2 drops of Crystal Blue Liquid Colorant
1/4 teaspoon of any Soap Crafters Fragrance

Put the clear Melt and Pour soap chunks in a microwave safe dish with the 2 color drops.  Zap for 50 seconds, remove and gently swirl until all is melted.  If you need to microwave it more, do so for only 10 seconds at a time.

When soap is melted, add fragrance and gently swirl in dish to mix, then pour into your baggie.

When a slight skin  has formed (in about 1 minute or less) carefully poke the fish down into the soap.  You might want to use a wooden skewer to straighten the fish when it is in the soap.

Allow the soap to set up.  When it is hard in about an hour or less, twist tie the top.

This soap is extremely popular!  It is the hottest thing in clear soaps these days.

Notes:

If you  have trouble getting your fish to 'swim right' and they want to be 'dead fish floating in a bag", then try this method:

Pour 1/2 the soap into the bag.  Put your fish in and adjust them, allow the soap to  harden.   Spray the top of the soap with Witch Hazel, rub in a bit.  Then pour the 2nd half of the soap on top.  This method gives you a little more control over those little fish.
