Traditional soapmaking

Friday 02 May 2025

From earliest evidence to more recent craft revival, we look at how soap has developed including exploring the perfumes used in soapmaking. Participants will then go on to make hot processed soft soap, pure olive Castile soap and Tudor inspired herb wash-balls to take away. The day is a mixture of hands-on activities and talks. By the end of the day participants will have a thorough working knowledge of soap making and its history.
