Book Reviews of Soapmaking for Fun & Profit: Make Money Doing What You Love! (For Fun & Profit)

Book Review: Very informational book - Good for first-timers and the business minded
Summary: 4 Stars

I have 48 post it notes marking key information throughout this book. I am extremely happy with my purchase. It it filled with a ton of advice from cold process to handmilled to melt and pour to opening your own business, pricing, marketing, selling - you can tell this writer is passionate about soap making.

Her advice is pratical - preparing a work station, creating scents, interesting molds, many handy hints, checklist for craft shows, tips for selling on the web, etc. etc. etc. Now, I know there are a few comments that the recipes aren't that spectacular, but let's be honest here....most of us want to create our own recipes anyway, right?!

I'm not into the cold process so I really can't critique that portion of the book. Yes, about 1/3 of the book is a mini-course in crafts business basics, written by Barbara Brabec - a book within a book. For me this was extremely interesting and information I wouldn't want to do without.

I sell and buy books on Amazon and although I like to sell my used book, this is not one I will be putting back up for sale. It is here in my kitchen to stay.
