Join us Saturday afternoon, October 24th from 4-6:00 pm for an adult (ages 16+) soapmaking experience! This is a beginner-to-intermediate level soap-making class.
👉Layered soap and mica line soap both require more control than a basic batch because you’re working in stages. With layered soap, you pour at different times, making sure each layer is thick enough to hold the next without mixing, but still soft enough to bond. You will learn...Timing and consistency during saponification are key - too soon and layers blend, too late and they separate. Mica line soap follows the same process but adds a thin dusting of mica between layers for a defined line. The challenge is using just enough - too much can prevent the layers from sticking, while too little won’t show. Both techniques come down to precision, but mica lines require an extra level of care and restraint. Sherri from Botanical Bubbles will walk you through the process step by step and you will leave with beautiful soaps!
You will also learn about the history and lore of soap making and the science behind it. There will be step-by-step instructions and we will work together to create your own unique handcrafted soap. You'll take home approximately 10 bars of handcrafted soap, class handouts, and a complimentary reusable wooden soap mold with lid (for first-time participants). If you've taken a previous class, please bring your mold with you - we love finding simple ways to reduce waste and care for the environment. Must be at least 16 years old to attend.
