Producing High Quality Hand Made Soap in our House:
Soap making takes over the Hall home for a month or so every year. Jim cooks the high quality oils on the stove top. Then he mixes, and pours into block molds, cuts, and places bars on trays to dry for several weeks. Chris and her support committee help label bars and pack boxes for mailing. Enjoy glimpses of the process below:
Each batch is stirred for 20-30 minutes. Jim has rigged his drill for the long task.
Big blocks harden overnight.
Blocks are cut into “loaves”
“Loaves” are sliced into bars. Jim made the piano wire cutter too.
The soap cures for weeks in Jim’s wood shop, hardening and becoming the mild, sudsy bars we love.
Way of the Spirit alumni and friends help “wrap” or label the soap.
