I've always wanted to learn how to make soap. Is it hard to make?

It can be a bit tricky, but it's not too difficult if you follow the instructions carefully. You'll need some basic supplies such as lye, water, and oils, which you can find at most craft stores or online. You'll also need safety gear like goggles and gloves, and you should work in a well-ventilated area. Once you have all your supplies ready, you can begin by melting the oils together in a pan over low heat. Then add the lye and stir continuously until the mixture turns into a thick paste. Finally, pour the soap batter into molds and let it set for 24 hours before unmolding.
