Arimara, yes I did ! I took some notes, too :) Lenarenee, sorry not sorry ! :lol: I'm in love with the Cambrian and Zeolite too... Actually, it's all your fault ! :p

Welcome ! :D

Read, watch a YT video, make a search on SMF, take some notes, read, watch a YT video, read, take some notes, make a search on SMF, read, watch a YT video... all day long. Does it count as soapy things ? :lol:

Thank you very much Gerry ! :D Lenarenee, it's exactly the type of colors I had in mind ! I'm gonna have a lot of experiences to do ^^

Gerry, if you talk about cheese with my french side, I'm in ! :lol: Do you leave your annatto infusion outside or do you use the method (is it called double-boil ?) that Susie explained above ? Can we apply this with every seeds/flowers/leaves..? Lenarenee, I'm gonna have a look at it...

Thank you Millie ! There is a lot of informations there, I'm gonna read it carefully :)

Isg, thank you for the link. It's very interesting ! Susie, I didn't know that we can "boil" the jar to infuse. I've only read about leaving the jar outside, in a sunny place, for several months. Thank you ! It seems easier and faster that way :D Craig, you're totally right ! But, you know...

Thank you Steve :) I'm gonna check this store, there are 3 around me ! And such a good idea to bribe them :lol:

Thanks you all ! :D And thank you to let me know where I can find caustic soda. I'm sooooo excited to start (again ^^) !! @earlene, Idaho is different from France, for sure ! I like this state, it's green (well, not now actually, we got 2 massive snowstorms since last month... crazy !), and...

Yes, I'm French and I live in Idaho since August :) I'm glad to find you guys to share about soap making ! I used to make soap (cold process) 8 years ago, in France. It was a great hobby and I loved it, but I didn't have enough time to keep going (my first child was very young then). But...
