Hello Fediverse, I've been around for a while but I'm still looking for fellow #soapmaker|s around here. I'd be glad if you could point me to other accounts that are into #SoapMaking.

@UlrikeHeiss I love your soaps.

I'm not into making soaps, but making candles, which is similar.

Up to you if it's similar enough for a follow.

And it's been a while since I made any candles since my disabilities decided to get worse.

@UlrikeHeiss not specifically #soapmakers but you'll find a range of craft artisans on Handmade(dot)social

@UlrikeHeiss I think @StuC has also made soap at home, but less for artistic reasons, I guess.

@UlrikeHeiss Oh hi! I occasionally make soap, but never bothered taking nice photos of them or even posting about it.
I am not too much into colourful designs, but try to use natural colorurings only.

The attached soap are a coconut oil heavy soap optimized for thick lather, the other is a fresh aleppo style soap with just olive and laurel oil. (It turned dark on the outside while curing, but stayed green inside)

I guess I will start posting about soap next time I do a batch. #SoapMaking

@UlrikeHeiss Hallo, ich mache meine Seife selbst. Aber ich habe keine Kontakte, ich mache das nur für mich, Familie und Freunde.

@UlrikeHeiss

Ich gehöre nicht dazu, aber ich hab in @ueckueck 's #Podcast mit dir davon gehört, dass du das machst! Finde ich super 👍 !

@UlrikeHeiss all I remember about soap & soapmaking, I learned from @mike_malaska

Here's a science thread of his at the birdsite (broken, but continuation in replies)

So. How does soap work anyway? I mean, down at the molecular level, what is going on? (#science thread)

@UlrikeHeiss Based on the amount of favorites and boosts I'd say your request for fellow soapmakers is... A wash 😁
@UlrikeHeiss I know that @sallypointer makes historical soaps.
@z @UlrikeHeiss yep, I work on the history and archaeology of soap and soapmaking
@UlrikeHeiss meee!!! Hello fellow soap maker :)
