Soap Making 101
Thursday and Friday, April 4 and 5, 2019. This class takes place over two days.
April 4 - 10:00 a.m. - 11:30 a.m.
April 5 - 12:00 p.m - 1:30 p.m.
Instructor: Bonnie Ausmus
 Going back to 2800 BC in Babylon, we find one of the earliest records of soap making. In this class, we will demystify this ancient art and create a unique, custom-blended soap. In our beautiful garden kitchen, we will have 2 days of learning and fun. There is $10 supply fee paid directly to the instructor on the first day. Please notice times of classes. Day 1:  we will blend palm, coconut and olive oils along with essential oils to begin the saponification process.  Pouring our completed ingredient mixture into our soap mold, we will let our soap sit overnight for curing. Day 2:  we will un-mold our soap, cut into bars, package and label.
  In 1995, after a year-long intensive herbal study program, Bonnie Ausmus opened her own company, “Herbal Simplicities”, which produced not only herbal soaps, but personal care products, as well.
 Continuing Education Units (CEUs) are available to FNGLA Certified Professionals upon request. 
 Participants must withdraw from classes at least five days prior to the start of class in order to receive a full refund or credit. If we must cancel a class, we will make every effort to inform you prior to the class time, and you will receive a full refund or credit. Only those registered for the class will be permitted in the classroom. Childcare services are not provided.
