Hello from me to you. Learning to make soap and almost anything where I get to use my hands has always interested me. I have been making things as long as I can remember. After reading a story about soap making is what started me on my journey to learning and making soap first for my family and friends, then eventually selling in the marketplace. Making that first batch of soap took hours and hours because I was not sure about what soap looked like when it had reached “a trace”. When I finally got brave and poured the soap batter into the wooden box mold I crossed my fingers and hoped that when I checked on it the following day that I would have soap…indeed I was successful! I was hooked from that moment on, It has been a long and lasting enjoyment for me. It has been over 25 years of soap making and I still have a few bars left of that first batch. To take a recipe of base ingredients and creating a bar of soap is rewarding, and it is a necessity in my life that is for sure, and I have no plans on stopping anytime soon,
