Hello all,

While I have wanted to make my own soap for a while now, I plan on making my first batch sometime in the next month, or at least before the fall semester starts.

I'm currently a college student, studying to become a high school science teacher. I never know what to say in introductions, but will answer any questions asked.

Hi and welcome! I just moved from CT about 10 mins from Uconn in Storrs. You'll love making soap. Feel free to ask lots of questions and check out the tutorial on the search feature, you'll find lots of good information.
