Hi Jen!!

A very warm welcome to the forum.  There are some fantastically gifted peeps around here, some new and some really experienced in the craft and everyone has something to give, some new slant and are incredibly inspirational. 

Keep posting Jen, there are more boards you can't see just yet but will open up to you.  Also, do have a look on the main site as there is plenty in resources and even more in the community, kindly submitted by other members (if you are not registered to the main site, it might be a good idea as there are resources that you can't see until you are logged in  Smiley

Anyway, good to have you here and I hope you find it useful

As a newbie I've been doing alot of research and trying to find a niche. The plan is to go into shea butter soaps using the unrefined stuff (not sure it's a good idea). I've made a few trial batches of CP plus 1 botch batch, nothing special compared to what I've seen on this site. I'll try post pics.
I'm from Manchester.
