Hi everyone, what a lovely bunch of soapers you all are.  I am really glad I found this site.  Im 47yrs and am absolutly hooked on CP making, I only started a month ago and have made 200 bars of soap and 3 doz cupcakes with frosting.  Im so taken up with the Art side of it, the creations that can be made out of such simple ingredients.
I want to tell you that, I started this so I could make my friends and family lovely soap hampers for xmas.
Also using them as guinee pigs for feedback.
I would love to try many of the herby ways of colouring them and would like to try fruit pulps and puree's.
I am so hooked and seeing your soap tables, ladies at your farmers markets, thaught Id do that this summer.  I'm working on getting together my ingredients list and having my formular certified safe, getting insurance etc.  I have a double garage at home with s sink and bath with shower unit, the baths raised 3 foot in the air... I used to be a Dog groomer in there.. but I can see it being my soap shed.
I can't wait.
