The fun is in trying out all the techniques and seeing if you can develop new ones in the process.<br /><br />How soap ends up looking depends on many things, if soaping is your business, if you sell retail only or wholesale or if it is a hobby or just for family.<br /><br />I try to make soaps that I can produce in volume without killing my body in the process because it is my living. If I was just doing artisan work and did not need to live off my soap then well they certainly would be different, even more creative, crazy and more one off pieces. <br /><br />Styles vary and as a soapmaker we can tell how much effort and time went into making the soap. The question then becomes can we sustain the level of labour intensity in certain soaps and then sell them at wholesale pricing. I certainly know that wholesale dictates the style of the soapmaker and I know there are many others out there in the same boat.<br /><br />This is one of the reasons I am passionate about getting my retail outlet at my workshop up and running so I can make some beautiful and some totally crazy unique stuff.<br /><br />I just know the local soap connoisseurs will come out of the woodwork from far and wide and visit me to shop for special gifts.Platypus Dreamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13476415939098893501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2379047203459943693.post-28539773495753556132011-03-02T10:17:20.059+11:002011-03-02T10:17:20.059+11:00Thanks Milla :) xxThanks Milla :) xxTopcathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11863479657181221708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2379047203459943693.post-71312510748877503192011-02-27T02:22:38.771+11:002011-02-27T02:22:38.771+11:00What a wonderful story!
