Do you enjoy making homemade soap?  |
|
 What kinds of soap do you make? From scratch or the melt and pour type. I have been making soaps for years and now my family is spoiled they hate store bought. Do you attend fairs or give them away.

 mcc371 (683) | 2 years ago | I started making soaps to give as gifts for several at christmas now I regularly make it for my home because nobody likes store bought anymore. I have several books too, I do the melt and pour but would like to learn the way from scratch..kinda leary of the lye ingredient. | |

 Trixy99 (191) | 2 years ago |  LOL I bought 2 or 3 books too and have never actually tried it. I guess I am a little scared to get a lye burn

| mcc371 (683) | 2 years ago | lol, yeah that is why i go to hobby lobby get the melt and pour glyercin and add fragrance or color to it and make my soap that way. I have read over the books I have on making soap and looked at several websites on the soap made from scratch but I guess I am gonna have to take the plunge..LOL | |

i like buying special fancy soaps once in a while, the different scents and colors.
TJMax sells alot of that stuff, that's where I get it when i buy it.

| mcc371 (683) | 1 year ago | I had to read your post twice to make sure that is what you said...
Yes, Home made soup is good to taste, but don't think I would be tasteing the homemade soaps that I make. ..practice always helps. | |

| 5. ineedaname (795) | 2 years ago |  LOL!!! That was funny! I am thinking about trying it out. My kids think it would be fun to make soaps!! Does it cost a lot to start out making soaps?

|
| mcc371 (683) | 1 year ago | no it isn't expenisive, go to a craft store and start out with the melt and pour soaps.To see if this is a hobby you might want to start doing- Some craft stores have kits you can buy and make it, I bought the melt and pour glyerin soap, a few molds, and some color and scents and have been addicted ever since. | |

| 8. hh9905 (998) | 2 years ago |  I've never tried before but after the reading the postings, it sounded like fun to do so. maybe i'd look over the internet on the guidelines.

| mcc371 (683) | 1 year ago | It is very simple to make your own soaps, They are so pretty and the scents & colors are the ones you choose. I have given them mostly as gifts and sold a few here and there.
The internet is a great place to do some research. If you have a Hobby Lobby or other craft store near by you can go there and see the supplies. Fair Warning though. It is an addictive hobby, and your friends & family will love you for it. | |

| 9. jal1948 (1307) | 2 years ago | what type of soapdoyou make the liquid type the detergentor the soap cakes, please let me know the formulas and method for doing the same | |
| |
|
|
| mcc371 (683) | 1 year ago | I make different ones like the small scented color soaps you display in the bath, Bar soaps for the shower and I have made some bath salts to bathe with. None of my soaps are liquid. I make the melt and pour one like you get from Hobby Lobby, I would like some day to make my own from scratch but I am afraid of the lye so for now the hobby continues the easy way. | |
