sounds great, I'll have to check it out!

Can't wait to see it! I've been toying with the idea of pride flag soaps for this June.

welcome to the forum! I hope to see pictures of your soaps, and wish you the best of luck!

Hi everyone, I figured now it's due that I post an introduction! My name is Jamie, I live in Western Massachusetts, and my interest in soapmaking started about two years ago! Recently, I've been getting back into my soap and candlemaking hobbies, and figured that I should start a real business...

in love with these colors!! happy 2021 🥂

that sounds great, thanks so much! I'll see what I think, but it sounds perfect for what I need.

I would definitely check the flammability on the fragrances used in the soaps, however that shouldn't be too much of an issue. I think it could be a fun DIY, and if not, a fun science experiment! just try not to burn your house down...

Hey everyone! Recently I've found myself enjoying some festive molds, however I do think it is time for me to reopen shop and start doing loaf sized batches again.

Personally, I love cold process making, and hanger swirls! My favorite colors to use are greens and blues, I find my batches to be more attractive when I use them together. Brambleberry's mica powders are my personal favorite.

Nice lather! Do you find any difference in between your recipes? (ie, does goat's milk have a smoother lather compared to batches without it?)
