Soap making has been my latest venture.
Lye scares me! :)
I personally think that a Stick Blender is a must when making soap! It speeds the process up so much!!!
The finished product! I was so excited to sell a basket of soap to a salon near us. I used scrap booking paper and recycled paper bags for wrapping the bars of soap.
I have made plain unscented soap and goat's milk soap. I have soap customers with sensitive skin that prefer unscented. I plan to remill some of my goat's milk soap and add essential oils to it. Any suggestions on what to use? What about websites to order from that have reasonable prices?
Happy Tuesday!

I don't know about websites for you to order from, but you should set up an Etsy shop for your soap (if you haven't already)!
This is something I've been looking into, but haven't had the nerve to try just yet! I really like the site www.brambleberry.com for supplies, ideas, and instructions. Lots of inspiration there!
Your packaged soap looks so pretty -
Mia!!! It is wonderful to hear from you! Hope you and your sweet family are doing well.
Aw, thanks, Leanna! You are too sweet :)
Thanks for the info Mrs. Jill! I'll check that site out soon!
Glad to know that I am not the only one scared by lye:) I've made soap a couple of times and I'm pretty sure that I am overly cautious with the it:)
Love how you packaged it!

That made me laugh Emily! I know a lady that wore glasses and a mask when she first started making soap! :)
Thanks! I have found that recycled paper bags make really cool packaging!
Yep, I totally wore glasses the first time:)
Well, I guess it is better to be safe than sorry! haha
