Hello All, Yes, I have taken soap making classes. I had wanted to make soap for years, after reading about it in the Mother Earth News many years ago. Life went on, and I forgot about it for the most part. Then I read an ad in the local paper about soap making classes and I thought "Finally, I am going to do this". I have since taken a couple more soap classes, all CP, a lotion and lip balm class, and a paraffin candle making class. Take the class if you can, my instructor was very good and I learned alot from her each time. Good Luck! Ruby
