3. If desired, add fragrance oil according to manufactures instructions and stir. (This step is optional.)
4. Carefully pour melted soap into clear poly bag. Fill about 1/4 of the bag. Use caution not to get soap down the side of the bag.
5.Quickly spray the soap inside the bag with alcohol a few times, this will pop the small bubbles.
6. Place the soap filled bag into the ice water.
7. Drop in a plastic fish. Try to hold your fish so that it will drop belly down.
8. Use the chopstick to quickly adjust the fish as desired.
9.Let sit in ice water for a bit longer and then remove. Ice water will help the soap to harden faster.
10. Wrap with a twist tie, this will allow the top of the soap to form correctly.
11.Set aside in an upright position to harden.
12. Once soap has hardened, take off the twist tie and let the alcohol air out.
