Australian Suppliers List

This is a list of suppliers that I hunted up over the first 10 pages of a Google search. I am in NO WAY being paid, getting discounts or free/subsidised merchandise from any of these companies to promote their business. The aim of this post is to purely put resources on one page...

Bits n Pieces

Yep, it has been a little while. My soaps have been cut and curing and are now being used! Loving them madly.

My other half has banned me from starting up soapmaking until we move. Fair enough, but I am itching like crazy to make up some more but with what? I have gone on a small binge and bought some utensils, measuring jugs, gloves, glasses but still need all the other essentials like mould, cutter, oils, lye, butters, essential oils...yeah you get the drift!

With the help of friends, I am hoping to move before my birthday, that is my goal. Hands up if you want to volunteer!

Houston, We Have SOAP!

After a very painful 24 hours of waiting, my first ever soaps have been cut and are now drying in of all places, the bathroom window! My new soaps join my purchased handmade soap, where it resides after my daily rituals.

I now present to you, my soaps!

Orange, Ginger and Poppyseed

Australian Pink Clay and Lemon Myrtle

This turned out a little dryish and cracked instead of cutting.

Remington & Emmett - Beginner Soap Making Class

Today was my first experience at soap making. It was under the watchful guide of Cheryl and Nicki from Remmington & Emmett. We produced four batches of soap, chatted a lot with other wonderful students, some of which had driven down fromTaree just for the day.

We were given full instructions along with a booklet plus a wealth of knowledge from both wonderful ladies. Four fantastic soaps are now brewing and tomorrow will be cut and left to cure.

Lunch was a lovely vegan 'pasta'. Spiral cut home grown zucchini and carrot along with a yummy sauce made with dates, miso, tomatoes and a few other secret ingredients. The veggies looked like pasta and we all agreed it was a great way to trick kids into eating their veggies!

Angus the rooster made an appearance and it didn't take long for me to chase up the other chooks and the two Shetland ponies.

Back to soaping and the last two soaps batches of the day were made. Goats milk is certainly a challenge and mine is currently in the fridge cooling off. It was quite surprising to feel actually how hot these little boxes of smelly wonderness actually get.

Our surroundings were amazing and certainly gave us a homely and comforting bliss to enjoy our first adventures into soap making. A few of us will certainly be back for round two, to pick brains and have a great day.

Bring your men folk as this is not just a women's thing!  Book yourself and a friend in, it is seriously one fun day!
