About this event
What you'll do
This afternoon workshop will serve as an introduction to cold-process soap making (including understanding the difference between the 'cold' and 'hot' process!). Attendees will be taught the benefits and basic science of natural hand-made soap. They will then get a chance to make their own soap, working with other participants to choose colours, fragrance, additives and more. All attendees walk away with a free bar of soap made especially for the workshop, and unavailable to buy anywhere else.
Perfect as a stress-free day activity for individuals or small groups, taught by experienced soap maker and owner of Bourn Beautiful Naturals, Kadian Pow.
