Learn how to make soap from scratch. The wonderful, natural soaps you see at specialty stores and markets. We use only vegetable oils ... and lye to make beautiful, creamy lathering soaps that are actually good for your skin. We incorporate essential oils and botanicals. A really fun craft to learn that can easily be a passion. We will go over the process, get familiar with the equipment needed, learn about different oils, the safety of working with lye (sodium hydroxide), and how to create a formula, working with colorant and fragrance and essential oils. We will make at least 4-5 batches of soap. Soap made in the cold process method takes 4-6 weeks to cure, so you will take home 3 already cured cold process soap samples. The class handout has the whole process from start to finish, properties of different vegetable oils, terminology of soap making, information on colorants, and suppliers list. We carry any of the items you need to get started in the supplies section with us at comparable prices, with no shipping charges. Cold process soap takes 4-6 weeks to cure before you can use it.
