Hello, I'm Clare, wife to my one and only, mother of 8, homemaker, homeschooler, homesteader, homebody and brand new to soapmaking. I want to learn how to make all natural soaps featuring as many ingredients as we can produce ourselves, including goat and sheep products. I'm hoping this is a good place to glean as much knowledge as I can from the experiences of others, conduct research to minimize my own mistakes, and share my successes and failures. I've already learned a lot from reading conversations here and am looking forward to learning more!
