Soap Making
During this class, we will be looking at the "Melt and Pour" method of soap making. A bit of soap theory starts off the workshop and we will be looking at what soap is, how it was discovered, a little history, how it cleans and what it is made up of.
Next is how it is melted, molded, shaped free-hand, followed by a discussion of the different ways to colour and add scent to your soap.
You will be instructed on the ways to make soap balls, molded soap, layered soap and multi-coloured embeded soap.
Finally, we will look at wrapping, decorating and packaging your soap for a more striking finished piece.
Upon completion, you will know all that there is to know about creating and making melt and pour soap!
Please bring older clothes or an apron...just in case!

Candle Making
In this class you will be shown how to safely melt wax, colour it, scent it and pour it into a mold. Several wicking methods will be demonstrated as well as the different ways in which candles can be scented and coloured.
You will learn the techniques of over-dipping to create a multi-layered effect, sponging techniques and stippling of wax.
The making of coloured wax chunks will be shown in which you will then be able to use to create a "Chunk Candle".
