Homemade soaps have become a passion of mine. For a number of years, I had an interest in it and after my daughter left home, Robert encouraged me to go ahead and pursue it. I had to start from scratch as I had never done it before. I started out simply buying a melt-and-pour kit. I soon figured out that I was interested in making my own natural soaps and hand milling.
I really enjoy making small batches. I’m able to work out recipes and experiment in small scale. It’s also a perfect project for our RV life.
I’ve made so many different bars and several people have been interested in trying them, with the most popular being lemongrass oatmeal, vanilla cinnamon, jasmine and peppermint. Also very popular is a Bug-Away formula that has eucalyptus and citronella.
I’ll continue to perfect my recipes and as we travel, I hope to share wherever we go.
