I had a book on soap making for Christmas last year and all 2011 I had been meaning to give it a go - I finally got around to making some soap just before this Christmas!
I used melt and pour soap base which was actually trickier than I thought it would be. Before this block was finished one of the layers went completely wrong - melting the base really slowly seems to be key! For my first soap I tried a layered block to cut into bars. The only things added to the base were orange scent and orange colour, the first layer also has some powdered cinnamon in.
soap making! how fun, i have never thought one could make there own soap, but i think that would be cool to try :)
