Man, is this ever exciting! You know that we are way into making anything and everything ourselves over here at Microcosm and teaching you how to do it in the process - but this one is extra special! A zine reprint of Norma Coney's book detailing soapmaking - a once practical necessity for the home, now a home hobby. Learn to make homemade soap with delightful fragrances and interesting textures. Detailed instructions and recipes are here for basic lye soaps made with animal or vegetable fats and for hand-milled and specialty soaps using almond meal, chamomile, glycerin, or milk that expand on those basic formulas.
