Making Soap

For my job, I sometimes have to plan events. Not big ones, just little things to invite a handful of clients to and give them a good time. Last week, we had one at the Urban Craft Center in Santa Monica, a really cute craft store that offers a bunch of different crafting classes. The one I planned for our clients was the glycerin soap making class. We didn’t make the mix from scratch, rather, we used a hot glycerin mix and then personalized the soaps we made using different shaped molds, colors, scents, and mixed in elements like oatmeal! It was a lot of fun choosing from all the details to make your own special soaps. I must have made around a dozen soaps in all different shapes, colors and scents!

I think everyone had a good time. We also served food and drinks, and of course, everyone was able to take home the soaps they had made! The Urban Craft Center was so great. I’m looking forward to taking some of their other classes on my own sometime.
