To make Fish in a bag soap:
- Melt your clear Renascent soap base (microwave or stove top)
- Add a few drops of your chosen Renascent fragrance
- Add a (VERY TINY) drip of pigment dye if you want your water slightly coloured
-
Add a fish to your cellophane bag
-
Holding the bag at the top (this is often easier being a 2 person job) carefully pour the melted soap in.
-
Tie the bag at the top and hang (I have a plastic indoor clothes hanger with pegs on it that is perfect for this job), you can also place the top weighted under something so it hangs straight down (this bit is important to allow your bag to look like it is filled with water and just ‘hanging’ there once set.
-
If you fish has gone belly up (looking a bit like a dead fish) this is the perfect time to carefully give a few bends and pokes to get it the right way around. Sometimes it helps to wedge it’s ‘nose’ into the corner which may hold it there.
-
Alternatively you may like to poke a thin piece of wire through your fish to suspend it in the soap, once the soap is nearly set, carefully pull the wire out of the bag leaving the fish there.
-
Another alternative is to add a tiny bit of soap to the bag and let it set with the fish poking up, then once set, fill the bag with melted soap and it should hold in the place you left it.

Allow to set
A fantastic gift for kids - at around $1 each, fantastic for school fetes too
