Join us for a wonderful soap-making workshop in Nottingham, where you’ll learn how to create skin-loving, handmade soaps with natural ingredients. This relaxing session is perfect for anyone who loves crafting or wants to pamper their skin with something special.
Guided by an experienced soap maker, you’ll discover how to blend essential oils, colours, and textures to make four unique soaps tailored to your style. You’ll also explore using natural butters, oils and dried herbs to create soaps that smell amazing and nourish the skin.
This hands-on class is a fun and creative experience where you’ll pick up plenty of tips and techniques to make beautiful handmade soaps.
At the end of the session, you will leave with new skills, helpful materials, and the confidence to continue soap-making at home.
Important Information
This is a traditional soap-making workshop, which means:
1. Your soaps will be soft immediately after making
2. They require 4–6 weeks to fully cure and harden
3. Soaps can or cannot be taken home fully finished on the same day (More information below)
5. They will not be wrapped like retail soaps at the time of collection. They will be packed in cardboard boxes because they will still be going through the curing phase and will require further airing and curing when you get home.
Soap Collection Option
Option 1: Free Collection (Later Pickup)
Your soaps will be unwrapped and carefully put in cardboard boxes for collection after the session on an agreed day. Please note they may still be soft and will continue curing at home.
Option 2: Take Home in a purchased Mould (£10)
You can purchase your soap mould from us on the day and take your soaps home with you after the session. This helps protect the shape while they set and allows you to continue curing them safely at home under your guidance. Please note, the soap with still be hot and in a custard-like state at the end of the session.
Option 3: Bring your own soap mould
You can bring your own soap mould to the session. This allows you to take your soap home at the end of the session, and it will continue curing at home under your guidance. Please note that the soap will still be hot and in a custard-like state.
