interested in this class, plan on attending the March 14th session to
learn the basics first.
Advanced soapmaking boot camp
is an all day class that will teach you how to make things like hot
process, milk soaps, advanced coloring and swirling techniques, how to
create your own recipes, and more behind the chemistry of soapmaking.
If interested in this class, please read over the entire details on the Advanced Soap Boot Camp page on this blog.
More
specific information about location and how to sign up for these
classes will be coming later. For now, if you'd like us to save you a
seat, please send us an email to the address below and we will contact
you to arrange payment for the class.
This is especially important
if you are interested in the soapmaking boot camp, as space is always
limited for that class, and the number of people we have sign up will
determine the location we use for the class.

Coming to Sacramento, Save the Date
Hello Students, Friends, and Fellow Crafters
I'm very excited to announce that Mom and I are tentatively planning a trip back to Sacramento this coming March. We were so disappointed we could not see you in October as we had originally planned due to our new work schedules, but we've both passed our initial probation, which means we now have the opportunity to see you once again.
Of course, we are not just coming for a visit, but also to teach several classes. Right now we are planning to possibly teach cold process soapmaking, an advanced soapmaking boot camp, natural cleaning supplies, and a spa/personal products class.
We are still ironing out further details and dates, but for right now we are planning for the second and third weekends in March. As we know more, we will be posting details here, and also sending details out to our email list. If you are not currently on our list and would like to be, send us an email using the form in the sidebar and we'll get your email address added.
We are both so looking forward to seeing all of you again!

Update on Life
Hello Students!
Just to give everyone an update, we are slowly settling in to life in Mississippi. Both Alyssa and I have found jobs at UMMC, the largest teaching hospital in the state, and we are adjusting to the culture shock. No huge bugs yet (much). :)
Which brings us to the bad news. Due to the constraints of the probation period of our new jobs, we are unable to make it back to California to teach the October 18th classes at The Learning Exchange. When we called to notify them, they said they would keep the classes open and find someone else to teach them, but we will not be teaching at Learning Exchange on October 18th. Learning Exchange recently changed ownership, so we don't know how that will affect the classes we teach there in the future at this point.
We have rescheduled our trip tentatively for the middle of January, possible Martin Luther King Jr. weekend. We know that might be a little difficult for some of you since it's around a holiday, but it will allow us to capitalize on how much time we get to spend in California. We will be sending out more info as we get plans more finalized, and of course be posting that info on the blog as well. We don't know yet if we will be teaching at Learning Exchange or another venue but will let you know as it gets closer.
We are also starting to build up our supplies again, so if anyone needs any supplies, or if you have any questions as you are working on your creations during the upcoming holidays, please feel free to drop us a line. We'd love to hear from all of you!
