Newbie Soapmaking Class Registration
Form 2008
This is a Beginners Soapmaking Class. Beginning soapmakers are lovingly referred to as “Soap
Newbies”. Our goal is to provide you with basic information about the ingredients and materials necessary to make soap.
We also emphasize safety precautions. We provide you with hands-on practical experience. However, to graduate from being a
“soap newbie” to an experienced soapmaker takes practice (and time). When you leave our class we’ll encourage
you to “go forth and saponify”. If you don’t know what saponify means, you’ll find out in class.
We cover theory in the morning. We will take a short break for lunch. You may bring a bag lunch or go out for lunch.
We provide soft drinks.
We meet back here in the afternoon. After a brief question and answer period, we’ll
make soap. The rule of thumb is one batch of soap per two students. We provide class materials (including text). You provide
eyewear. If you wear glasses, that’s fine. If not, please purchase protective eye gear. We suggest trying Lowe’s
or Home Depot. Wear loose comfortable clothing that you do not mind getting dirty. We are not responsible for ruined clothing.
The soap made in class is divided up amongst the students. It takes 3-4 weeks to cure soap so you can pick it up or
we will send it to you (shipping is an additional cost).

OUR BOOK Bubble Bubble Toil And...Fun We use it in the mornung...at night...in the shower...or
the bath - SOAP is one of the most widely used products, and yet, most people know very little about it. They know it helps
to get them clean but where did it originate, how is it made, and more importantly, what goes into making soap?
Most
of us can't even pronounce ingredients found in commercial products and all the so-called "natural" products
are not really natural.
Bubble, Bubble, Toil And...Fun provides information needed for selecting products which
are actually good for your skin. It's not just a "how to" book for making soap.
However, there is
a complete section on how to make cold=processed soap, chapters on handmilling soap, melt & pour and transparent soap
plus some basic soap recipes. Useful charts for the soapmaker have been included.
There's even a chapter on
easy-to-make recipes using ingredients purchased at your local green market or grocery store.
