Learn how to make traditional and eco friendly soaps and detergents to take home with you.
Many commercial cleaning products are not good for the environment, not good for our health, expensive and make us feel bamboozled.
This workshop is about washing away all that grime.
Traditional soap is great fun to make, inexpensive and it works.
This is a full day workshop, and you will take a whole range of products home with you. Tickets cost £45 + booking fee. We are able to offer a couple of subsidised places, if you would like to apply for one of these please email info@proper-job.org with details of your circumstances. Please note tickets can’t be refunded unless a minimum of a weeks notice is given.
On this course you will make and take home:
Washing up liquid that can tackle baked on grease
Laundry detergent that is effective and hypoallergenic.
Coconut hand soap which is very simple and very long lasting
Shower soap which is good for your skin
We will also look at the different lyes, fats and oils and their uses, plus essential oils, additives, techniques and storage.
All done in a beautifully restored stone barn with ample parking. Tea, coffee and biscuits will be provided but please bring a packed lunch with you.
