"You're most likely not going to lose a finger making soap," says John Hanson of Longfellow Soap in Minneapolis, Minnesota. That's reassuring! In this video, John shows you how to make bar soap at home. He says it takes about two hours to make a batch. The ingredients include olive oil, avocado oil, coconut oil, lye (drain opener), and some kind of scented oil, like lemongrass. I had no idea that you needed to cure soap for about 3 weeks after you pour it into the mold. The process looks pretty easy and a lot of fun. I want to give this a try.
