One thing that I would like to learn how to do is to make soap. I love receiving handmade soaps and think that giving homemade gifts is the way to go, if possible. However, the idea of working with lye has put me off a bit as we have asthma and allergies in our home and I worry that the smell may be too much. Of course, I don't know anyone who makes soap to ask them about this! Susan Godfrey's Making Hand-Milled Soap for Fun and Profit! is the P-E-R-F-E-C-T eBook for beginning soap-makers. "Hand-milled" just means that you are taking any non-scented soap that you purchase at the store (or you can also use your own unscented soap), grate it and add essential oils or other ingredients to the mixture to make your own special soap! Honestly, it can't get much simpler than that!
Now, you must have access to a double boiler, some molds and the ingredients to make your own soap, but this is not a huge investment at all. Making Hand-Milled Soap for Fun and Profit! contains 20 ideas of where and how to sell your soap online or to get your name known in your community as THE person to contact for homemade soap. There are 52 recipes included in the eBook and Susan has included a short list of commonly used ingredients, too. There are even "specialty" soaps for massage and repelling insects! Her instructions for making the soap are thorough and easy to follow. A child could do this with the guidance of their parent!
You can purchase this eBook for $7.49 at Susan's blog (link above) or by clicking on the graphic above. I am hoping to try this with my kids this summer in order to create some unique and personal Christmas gifts for our family and friends!
