This Month: Autumn Soaps
This month, we’re diving into soap making using an easy melt‑and‑pour method perfect for beginners. Participants will create TWO handcrafted soap bars, using festive autumn molds, and will get to customize each bar with different fragrances and colors. Our fragrance options include:

🍮 Pumpkin Souffle – Unlike other pumpkin scents that are mostly spice notes, this one is a mix of walnut, pecan, espresso, freshly-cooked pumpkin, caramel, ginger, cinnamon, and allspice.

🟢 Spiced Pistachio – Spiced Pistachio blends gourmand warmth with woody sophistication. Sparkling mandarin and cardamom open this inviting scent, followed by creamy pistachio, eggnog spices, and a hint of gin’s botanicals. Sandalwood, amber, and vanilla create a rich, cashmere-like base.

🥃 Apple Bourbon – This fragrance is inspired by sipping a cocktail on a crisp fall day. It’s a warm mix of green apple, lime, bourbon, sparkling ginger, amber, caramel, and vanilla.

🍊 Orange & Clove – This fragrance opens with a bright, citrus-forward burst of Seville orange, lemon zest, and bergamot before moving into a cool, slightly green middle of eucalyptus, fir needles, and lily. Amberwood, orange wood, and tonka bring a warm, spiced finish that grounds the whole fragrance. It smells like citrus simmering on the stove with warm spices on a cold afternoon.

All supplies will be provided, making this a fun, low‑pressure way to try something new – and you’ll get to take home some beautifully scented soap!
