Learn this Rewarding Craft from an Experienced Teacher
Handmade soap is a living thing, the product of a folk alchemy that has been lost to all but a small number of craftspeople and individualists in our society. Now Merilyn Mohr has created a complete introduction to the art of home soapmaking--a craft that appeals to both our sense of economy (consider the mounting costs of hand soap, detergents, toothpaste and shampoos) and to our simple aesthetics.

With years of experience, including having operated a cottage soapmaking business, Merilyn Mohr demystifies the soapmaking process, taking the beginner step-by-step through the procedure, assuring success with the very first batch.

Illustrated, simplified directions for making: fragrant hand soaps, inexpensive laundry soaps, leather soaps, insecticidal soaps for plants, shaving lather, toothpaste, herbal soaps and shampoos.
