 Hey there, Olde Crone! Will you teach me how to make soap?I can't tell you how many times I've been asked that. Teaching a soap making class is too much of a demand on my time right now, but because I live to serve, I've done the next best thing: I've written a book. Making Soap In Your Own Kitchen is a beginner's guide to soap-making, which is fully illustrated with photographs for each step of the process. You will discover: - A Brief History of Soap (very brief)
- What lye is and why it is necessary
- Which fats and oils to use
- What materials are needed and where to get them
- The entire process, from weighing fats to mixing lye, to cutting the finished soap into bars
- Essential oils that scent your soaps
- Recipes!
- Packaging options for gifts/sale of your soap
Each and every step has a photograph that shows what to do at that point, so there is no guesswork involved. Advice is included about how to handle lye, the fats that will make your soap moisturizing, and which tools are cheapest and most effective. Furthermore, having the book in an electronic format has several benefits: - No paper is used, so it is an evironmentally considerate choice.
- When reading an ebook, you can increase or decrease the size of the text. Hooray!
- You can search through the book, electronically.
- The price of the book is not increased due to the number of photographs; were the book to be printed, it would be cost-prohibitive. An eBook allows me to show you, step-by-step, the entire process.
- You will receive your book via download when the payment is received (usually the same day). No waiting for shipment or shipping charges. Input the password, and you can start making soap right away!
When you purchase your ebook, you will receive an email with a link, a username, and a password. After your payment is received, you will have 48 hours to enter the username and password to access the book. Downloads of the book take anywhere from 30 seconds to upwards of 5 minutes, depending upon your connection speed. Those with broadband or DSL will experience faster download times.
