Festive Soap Making

a Green Maker Initiative workshop

Join Sarah, from Hedgewitch Soapery, to learn cold process soap making with a festive twist!

In this introductory workshop, you’ll create your own natural soap loaf using time-honoured methods, the finest ingredients and essential oils. The loaf can be can be sliced into 6-8 bars of soap, making a lovely treat for yourself as well as a handful of thoughtful Christmas presents!

You will blend plant-based ingredients, choose between several seasonal scent blends and an array of decorative botanicals, to create your own personally designed festive soap.

All the essential ingredients, soap-making equipment, and safety gear are provided. Just bring along your enthusiasm, a cardboard box large enough to accommodate a tetra pack, and an old beach towel or blanket for transporting your soap masterpiece.
