Summer Soap Making Classes In The historic Alba Schoolhouse

New Locations for the soap class is the old Alba School house in the Santa Cruz Mountains above Ben Lomond, Please account for travel time. address: 12070 Alba Rd, Ben Lomond, CA 95005

Classes start promptly at 1 pm. as we have lots to do and go to 5 pm. Then two to three days later we meet to cut the bars at my Felton soap studio. (and if you can't come back to cut your bars, I can do it and email you photos and your finished soaps can be mailed)

The discussion will include the tools needed, chemistry of soap making, the environmental impacts of ingredients. In Garimo's studio & classes we do not use synthetic fragrances or colorants. After the soap making introduction, Garimo will make a batch of soap while students watch... and then everyone makes a batch of soap. When all is said and done, each student ends up with around 9 or 1o bars of soap they've made with organic oils and natural ingredients. Garimo will provide all the materials and supplies, you just need to wear something old & casual you won't mind getting a spot of oil on... not that you will, but you could.

Soaps need to dry & cure for 3 to 4 weeks before use after cutting bars.

Class size limited to 6 Choose from Saturday July 20 - Saturday August 17.
