3. Add 1-2 drops of food coloring (if desired) and stir

4. Pour glycerin into the mold until it is 1/3 full (or 1/3 the depth that you want your soap to be)

5. Allow glycerin to set for 5-10 minutes

6. Place toy on partially set glycerin

7. Pour remaining glycerin on top of toy until it is fully covered

8. Wait 30-40 minutes for glycerin to set
