The Art of Soap Making

Join Jan – Director of the Institute of Aromatherapy – for a class in making cold-process herbal and vegetable based soaps. Together we shall make an excellent basic herbal soap recipe and a batch of a surprise exotic soap. We shall explore different ingredients, methods and sources that you might use to make a variety of exciting soaps. You will learn about simple equipment necessary to make soap, some trouble-shooting tips, a few historical tidbits and ways of decorating/icing your soaps. Please bring your most outrageous apron and ‘cool’ eye protection (sunglasses will do).

One day workshop with Jan Benham.
