Getting a shop up, and running

Making the soap is the easy part.  getting a shop, and website up, and running is a whole other kettle of fish.  I will certainly have some odd bits here,  and there whilst I get things sorted out,  and I hope you will all find it amusing.

lets jump right in, and talk about the soap I make,  and how i got started.

My interest in making soap is a direct result of a bout with insomnia.  In the hopes of getting back to sleep I began watching Youtube videos,  and suddenly found myself on a soap making tutorial.  The person teaching,  Elly of ''Elly's Everyday'',  was captivating,  and i never did get back to sleep.

I binged watched dozens of her tutorials,  and then explored other videos from different soap makers.  I was Hooked.  Other than the lye I had all the ingredients to get started.  My first batch of soap, not surprisingly, would be a pine tar soap.

Once the lye was obtained,  and all the needed equipment,  I donned my goggles, and rubber gloves,  and began making my very first batch of cold process soap.
