Welcome to my soapmaking blog!

I only recently found myself interested in soap making, because of one simple reason. I wanted to make my girlfriend a special gift to thank her for being so wonderful and loving.

But I didn’t know what to get her, she has more than enough jewelery, twice as many pairs of shoes than me, she’s a diabetic so rather skip expensive chocolate, and flowers well, they last only a few short days. Normally the idea of buying her a bar of soap would never cross my mind(she might think I’m hinting towards an underlying hygiene problem, which is NOT the case, he he), but I know she loves to take long relaxing baths, AND she appreciates something I made for her more than something I bought (don’t we all?).

So, down to the library I went. I read quite a few books and decided to make her a nice sweet smelling strawberry flavored bar of soap, neatly wrapped with a small card telling her how much I appreciate her. Needless to say, it worked like a bomb! At first she didn’t want to use the soap, she wanted to keep it “safe”, so she put it on her dresser to look at it every day.

But after promising her I’ll make her another soap she agreed to use it. Till this day I am her one and only soap supplier, he he!

Here I will share all of my recipes, tips and tools needed with you so you too can make wonderful soaps at home!
