Welcome soapmakers, seasoned and newbies alike!

This is a group where we talk MOSTLY about soap making (predominantly cold process recipes and tips) and some bath/body products. Most importantly, this is a place to help each other, beginners and experienced persons alike (no one knows EVERYTHING).

Occasionally, there will be OT (off topic), but it is rare - see companion group Soap_makers_OT for off topic discussions. You must be a member here to join that group. The list to talk about off-topic is http://groups.yahoo.com/group/soap_makers_OT.

This is NOT a list where we teach you how to run a business or get rich quick - it takes time to perfect this craft, so please consider this carefully before applying for membership. If that is why you want to be here, you should seriously consider another group.

IF YOU ARE NOT INTERESTED IN MAKING SOAP OR LEARNING PLEASE DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR OURS - YOU WILL BE TURNED DOWN FOR MEMBERSHIP. This is a list for soapmakers and people who want to learn how to make soap, not start a business.

This is also a FREE *learning/teaching* list - do not expect to be able to post ONLY ads for your books, supplies, etc.
