Title: Absolute Beginner Post by: ArbitraryFairy on December 12, 2012, 01:10:36 AM Hi
I have just got together the stuff to make my very first MP soap. I may need some hand holding/shoulders to cry on! I have 5 sons - ages between 10 and 23, so "only" four at home, now. ;D I've made my own lotions and potions for about a decade now after I had to figure out a non chemically cream for our excema. So I already have a cupboard full of base and essential oils, etc. I've kept thinking about trying soapmaking, and now with xmas coming and some stocking presents needed - took the plunge! One of my sons is Lego crazy and wanted some Lego shaped soap he saw at a craft fair in the summer. So one of the moulds I got was a Lego brick... (Well anything to encourage teenagers to wash, right? ;D) I am a very crafty person - keen knitter, spinner and natural dyer and also do living history events, occasionally. Looking forward to learning more from you all! This seems such a friendly, lovely site.

My son would like a lego soap too I think, it sounds perfect.
