Pigments, Micas, and Dyes Oh My! Colouring (and Scenting) Cold Process Soap Workshop

$125.00
Building on what you learned in our Introductory Soapmaking Workshop (required), in this class we will discuss the various options for colouring and scenting your soap.  You will learn about the differences between the colour options and how they affect your soap, usage rates and using essential and fragrance oils.  Michele will demonstrate some layering technique and guide you as you make your own batch of soap to take home with you.  This 3 hour workshop will review safe lye handling, basic soapmaking and focus on this design technique.  During the class you will get to select your scent, colourant and additives.   Gift Cards Available.
Bonus: Bring your mold and safety equipment from our introductory class and save $10 on workshop fee (use coupon code MYMOLD).  Don't think you will use the mold again? Return it to us after the workshop for a $10 refund.
