How to make your own soap

Hello, and welcome to this week's edition of the You Can Do-It-Yourself series. If you haven't heard about this series I'm featuring in the blog in 2017, you can read all about it here

Today I'm sharing with you inspiration on how to make your own soap. Soap making is something I've been meaning to try for a long time, and I've decided that there's actually no better time than now. I want to use homemade soaps at our house as much as possible and if they turn out well (which I hope they will), I'll also use them as homemade gifts.

  How to make your own soap

So, I have chosen several homemade soap "recipes" which come with detailed instructions and don't use any complicated or hard to find ingredients. They all look so pretty it's hard to choose which one to try first...


For many more homemade soap ideas, you can also visit my Homemade Soap Pinterest Board.



10 Minute Apple Pie Soap & Labels



Lemon Shea Butter Soap


Orange Creamsicle Soap


I hope you've enjoyed this little list of ideas, come back next week to see what I'll be sharing!


The purpose of the You Can Do-It-Yourself series is to share wonderful projects every week in 2017 and show you that there are lots of things that we are used to buying but than can be perfectly made by us. All links posted will obviously be DIY tutorials with clear instructions and/or free patterns, so that everyone can easily replicate them.

I've created a specific page for the series, which will include links to the crafts already covered. If you have suggestions for any of the topics, feel free to leave me a comment or send me an e-mail and I will try to include your ideas as much as possible (with proper credit).
And if you actually make some of these projects (which I hope you do), please share with me photos or links and I will be very happy to post them here too!



Happy Wednesday,
