Try Mr Google Rocket. There is a whole lot of info on making your own soap. Sorry I do not know any
where you could go to learn.

 Check local community centres they often have all those sorts of classes and also candle supply places will often run classes for various things..

Gday...

I don't know how to make soap on the Northside of Brisbane ... or anywhere else for that matter

However, Mr Google (how did we ever live with him confuse) provides this site (amongst others). It ain't Brisvegas northside .. but it could be a beginning praps.

We've been making it for years but pure vegetarian soap ....no animal products.... Basically you need caustic soda, vegetable oil and a mould plus be careful. The end product is excellent for those with skin problems.

On this show they taught Guy to make soap from a traditional recipe.

They even filmed him in the shower using it which was funny as.

It looked quite easy and the result was amazing even better than popular brands.

Cheers and good onya for keeping the old skills alive.
