Until I found out that they were full of chemicals I didn't want on my skin! I've wanted to make REAL soap (the lye kind) for years, but have been too afraid to try.

It'd be fun if I could find a class or someone to show me how.

They don't smell as strongly as I would like, but then lots of people prefer lightly scented soap- so it will make a really great gift :)<BR/><BR/>@ Marjean; wow- if you make your own tofu and laundry detergent i'm sure you'll be fine with soap! I think I may be a bit of a lazy bean and that's why it seemed so intimidating :)<BR/>My fiancé and I really want to make our own bread someday- like my grand-mère's bread... mmm it was SOO good. Unfortunately we have a TINY kitchen, so baking can be a chore sometimes. But homemade bread is definitely creeping up there on our 'will do soon' list!Eco Yoginihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10693080137196812405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2965370542440002490.post-21676844807993200212009-04-06T13:34:00.000-03:002009-04-06T13:34:00.000-03:00Soap making is something I would like to try but I...Soap making is something I would like to try but I think I will wait until I retire because it does sound like there is a lot to it. So for now it will be another thing to add to my "to do list". I have made my own tofu several times and enjoy the process but as it too takes time I generally only make it 2-3 times during the winter. There is a lot of satisfaction that comes from doing things for yourself...like making bread. I have been making my own yogurt once a week for the past two years and making my own laundry detergent for about a year now and I wouldn't think of going back to store bought again.Marisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06452957979065342811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2965370542440002490.post-53518138237853465712009-04-05T19:28:00.000-03:002009-04-05T19:28:00.000-03:00Very interesting!
