[Nfb-krafters-korner] soap making

[Dan Brewer]

Hi Lee,
Now I am new at this so I am not an athority, but the list at 
Brambleberry just says esentil oils.  They sell batanicals too. I 
think from the soaps I have purchased that this is the way to 
go.  But I bet your oils will work well.

I am anxious to try your combo.  Sounds yummy.  My orange and 
lavendar is to suttle for me.  I usually keep these soaps in a drawer 
for a while before I use them.  I am trying one in there now and one 
in the shower.  I will keep you posted on my findings. lol
