Looking for a gift making course that could translate into business idea?

Or simply to pamper yourself?

Lucky you! We’ve created a second day of indulgent melt and pour soap crafting techniques, and soap making ideas for people who don’t want to leave it at one day. On this particular course we’ll cover advanced soap crafting techniques.

In the morning we’ll explore natural ingredients  to sent, colour, garnish your soap base  including essential oils, minerals, botanicals and oils to create specialist soaps such as a gardeners scrub. There will be plenty of time to explore ingredients and to create sample soaps.

We’ll then inspire with  boutique style cakes and gateaux with plenty of sweet looking soaps to take home. Students will be encouraged to create their own personalised variation on a theme with our support whilst putting new found skills into practice. This is a hands-on and fragrant experience.

We thoroughly recommend that students take our 1 day beginners soap crafting course prior to embarking on this advanced course. Both courses can be taken in the same weekend and by absolute beginners or those with basic melt and pour soap making knowledge.

Simply book for the experience or to learn a craft making skill that will change appreciation of soap and the simple daily experience of mindful hand washing with your very own hand made soap! if you make to much this also makes the perfect, thoughtful gift which passes on the love!
