HAPPY NEW YEAR all. A few batches of practice and this is what I am producing. This is a Tallow - Coconut bar.

Those concerns are a few months aeay. But....plan ahead for success right? Thanks for the advice.

Dorymae...thanks. Actually I am in the Valley. As for my garage....East/West Facing. As is the rest of the house. Trust me....our next house will be a North/South. Good to know that the environment will be good. I thought it might but was not sure. Thanks for clearing that up. I already...

Yesterday I ventured into the world of Milk Soap. Specifically Powdered Goat Milk....I think it turned out well. Zap tested....no sting. Lard, Palm Oil, Sunflower Oil & Cocoa Butter were used in this recipe.

If anyone can help with this question it would be greatly appreciated. I can't seem to find any information on the Internet that addresses this. I live in Arizona. My primary workspace for making soap is in my garage...which is not insulated. I am wondering as we move toward warmer months...

I'm not artsy. I'll stick to function for now.

Ok everyone...here is a pic of the suds it makes. Remember....this was used cooking oil... :-)

Thanks

So....today I showered with my first batch of soap. It was amazing! I will never need to buy soap again.

I am thinking perhaps one day I may think about the business aspects....but for now I'm having fun playing....and looking forward to my first shower with my own creation.

That's why I'm taking it slow.

Here is a question... How many of you are making soaps for sale?

It was amazing today. I took a tiny sliver and put it in some hot water in a jar.....shook it up and got bubbles. It was very exciting.

My second batch. At some point I'll learn to make soap pretty. Right now functional is my goal.

Congratulations on your second batch success. I am in the process of doing my second batch even as I type this message. I hope mine turns out as well.

Bath Bombs......that helps. I'll start my search there. Thanks!

HELP! Ok...here is the situation. Yesterday I was in a training session at work. During the introductions in the morning we were all telling our hobbies. So naturally I listed soaping as one of my many hobbies. A lady in the training piped up and said....oh...we need to talk. Long...

That is helpful.....thanks!
