About Me

My photo
I have a wonderful family who supports my many hobbies including singing, soapmaking, wine tasting and rabbits. I recently retired from teaching English as a Second Language and love to travel. I started making soap in 1999 when we were showing goats in milk as a 4-H project. All of my soaps are made with pure oils and no animal fats. All fragrances are from essential oils. Store-bought "soap" is really a detergent. My soap will leave your skin clean and moisturized. Try some!

2.4 oz. Grape Seed Oil
1.4 oz. Beeswax
1.4 oz. Shea Butter

  1. I meant to try a colorant with this batch to simulate the expected color for wine soap. However, I forgot to add it. Next time.
