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!

Tahitian Vanilla Soap

Ordering fragrances from Brambleberry Products has been fun.  With each order, they give me a sample of something that I might like.  One order included a sample of their Tahitian Vanilla fragrance oil.  I decided to use that today to make a small batch of vanilla soap.  Bars of this soap will be ready in about 3 weeks.


 9 oz.  Olive Oil
 9 oz.  Coconut Oil
 9 oz.  Palm Oil
2.6 oz. Castor Oil
1.6 oz. Safflower Oil
  .9 oz. Cocoa Butter

12 oz.  Water
4.5 oz.  Sodium Hydroxide

  1 oz.  Fragrance Oil (Tahitian Vanilla)
   .5 oz. Vitamin E Oil
