Hey eveyone... I am fairly new to the world of candlemaking and VERY new to soaping. I am currently making container soy candles for my sister's retail store and as much as I enjoy doing that... I find that my first attempts at making soap were completely addicting!

I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone here and to learning more about both candlemaking and soaping!

Oh... I'm a married mother of one teenage daughter... two dogs and two cats. I'm an LPN by trade but nolonger practice by choice. I live in Wisconsin and am counting the days until spring. The 7 inches of snow that fell on Sunday really put a kink in the think spring thang...lol.
