Hello!

[6WeekCure]

My name is Chris Medeiros. I am a Gen: Baby Boomer just 2 years, 3 months and 23 days away from retiring. 🎉 My wife and I live in Northern California. We have 2 great kids and 7 wonderful Grandkids! 

 

I have been making soap for about 4 months now. So, I am quite the newbie. I became interested in soap making while 'researching' on the Internet, I ran across ordinary people on YouTube creating soap and loving it. Next thing I know, I'm stopping at soapmaker booths to look and purchase their handiwork. Inspired by those crafters, I decided to get into making soap.

 

My primary job right now is supporting computer users. It is a blessing for me to help people by resolving their computer issues. However, retirement is just a couple short years away and I'm ready to bless people by making soap for them instead.

Hello @6WeekCure and welcome to Craft Server. I'm a candle maker but I know there are lots of soap makers on here and I'm sure they have lots of knowledge to share. Enjoy browsing the site. 😊

 

Some Helpful General Tidbits:

If you don't know about this free software already then you should try it out https://www.soapinventory.com/, it's awesome. I use it cause it also works with candle information and is so helpful. Even thought it's free I give the guy period donations because I'm so thankful for the software and database.
