I woke up one day and decided that I wanted to learn how to make my own soap. But here's the catch, I have no clue where to begin. I have done quite a bit of reading but still unsure of what to start with. Any suggestions??

I would start with some MP... Brambleberry is a great place for products. They have a bunch of starter kits to help you learn how to work with it. MP stands for Melt and Pour. You literally melt it in a double boiler or microwave, add your scent, color, and pour in a mold. This type of soap can be used right away when it is cool. Here is the link to the kits:

Another great place to check out is soap queen tv. Anne Marie has many tutorials that can help you learn different techniques. Here's the link for that:

Good luck and have fun! Also feel free to ask questions here. We would all love to help you out!

I'm pretty new too and have found info all over the place but Soapqueen.com is invaluable!

You'll find yourself addicted in no time.
