Hi all - Not only am I new to this forum but also to soapmaking.   I took early retirement a couple of years ago and since then have been twiddling my thumbs a bit.   Whilst on holiday recently I bought a bar of handmad e soap which fired my curiosity and since returning home and doing lots of reading and surfing the internet I am hooked (my wife is sick of me already as all I talk about now is soap).   So far I have only tried melt and pour but am now venturing into other processes where I will have more control over the ingredients I use.   i find all the posts fascinating and long may it continue.   Bye for now.

 Hi Snowy
 Welcome to the forum, you will enjoy yourself here, lots of lovely people. I am fairly new to soapmaking too, this site is a great resource for information. I am sure your wife wont mind so much when she has all gorgeous soaps all over the house.
