Soap choice that you shred up for the recipe is all yours, of course...I try to use "earth friendly" stuff, which is part of the reason I wanted to make my own in the first place. I'm toying with the idea of making those initial bars from scratch...wood ashes, coconut oil, etc. Sounds like fun!Bláithínhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08190156812106251133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1006861162968225133.post-67975077772318993842009-05-08T17:24:00.000-04:002009-05-08T17:24:00.000-04:00this sounds fab.

I was employed at), but I think they need a low-sudsing soap/detergent?? I've heard from others that this type of homemade laundry soap does well. <br /><br />To make this batch of soap, I'm guessing I spent less than 1/2 hour, and that included taking the photos :-)<br /><br />I've enjoyed your blog greatly! Keep up the good work!Bláithínhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08190156812106251133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1006861162968225133.post-14485177733130102472009-04-15T19:06:00.000-04:002009-04-15T19:06:00.000-04:00Hi Blaithin.

I just wonder if (how well) the "gelatinous" stuff would work in a front loader.<br /><br />Also - how long does it take you (apprx) to make a batch of soap?<br /><br />And I also see that you got my blog on yor blog roll. Thank you!!!<br /><br />I'll be back!Sylvie, Rappahannock Cook & Kitchen Gardenerhttp://www.laughingduckgardens.com/ldblog.php/noreply@blogger.com
