Every year, I look forward to putting together Fall soap recipes. I make them myself, play around with colors and design, and then share my favorites with you! I really love what I’ve come up with this year. I put a few of my favorites in my shop. These are usually in small batches, so...
I’ve put together 3 hot process herbal shampoo recipes that are full of summer herbs, brightness, and scents. Summer soap making is actually a lot easier than winter soap making. You don’t have to worry much about insulating and clean up is easier when the soap residue isn’t hardening in your sink and drain. I...

This is a project that I’ve been working on for about a year now: how to make a melt and pour base recipe from scratch with only pure and healthy ingredients. I’ve been tweaking the recipe, not wanting to just say, “This is as good as it gets.” But wanting to improve the end texture...
I often get asked for more shampoo bar recipes. I have a few that are my favorite that I use for our hair type. Organic shampoo bars are easy to make. If you can follow directions to make a cake, then you can follow directions for making soap or shampoo from scratch. Don’t rely on...

Christmas brings up memories of certain earthy scents like cinnamon and clove, foods like peppermint and citrus, or warm scents like vanilla and sandalwood. You can make great gifts by combining scents that you...

It can make a hard soap bar that’s long lasting, especially when made with tallow, and so wonderfully...

I’m happy that I can start a garden, keep a sourdough starter, and create herbal remedies. Those are all very important....
