Summer Class through Three Leaf Farm, Lafayette
Learn to make natural, hand-crafted soap outside at a local, sustainable farm - clean and green,
Join us at either my Courageous Soap South Boulder studio (May 21) or Three Leaf Farm in Lafayette (July 9th), each a perfect setting to learn a new, creative yet practical skill.
Thoughtfully crafting your own soap with a few simple, skin supportive ingredients is both a creative and eco-savvy alternative to commercial “soaps” (actually detergents) that can wreak havoc on both the environment and your system. As an experienced, award-winning soap artisan, Lisa will show you how to elevate beginner soap design into something special.
In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn the basics of making classic, hand-poured, cold-process soap. We'll review safety tips, create a beginners' supply list, and get creative with customization techniques. You'll leave inspired with detailed notes, simple recipes, a resource list, handcrafted soap, and (quite possible) a happy obsession with a new creative pursuit. :)
NOTE:
This class is for adults (16+ years) - not recommended for younger children.
You're welcome to do this class with an older teen, but please note that the fee is per participant.
Want a soap class for a younger child? Check out our Parent/Child Glycerin Soap Class on May 7th!

In this class we'll also cover common pitfalls (False trace! Elusive emulsion! Volcano soap! to name a few). Bring soap fails and/or questions - we'll see if we can diagnose the situation.
NOTE: This is a formulation class for those who have a basic knowledge of soap making/have made a few Cold Process Soap batches.
We don't make soap in this class, rather, this is hands-on practice of the skills listed. You'll leave class with copious notes, practice on how to create soap recipes, work with scents, use natural color and additives, plus your own original recipes to try.
