Soap-Making Workshops

A Refined, Hands-On Natural Soap Experience

Our soap-making workshops in Gastown, Vancouver are designed for those who appreciate traditional craft, natural ingredients, and thoughtful instruction.

Hosted in an intimate studio setting at 313 Cambie Street, each workshop offers a guided introduction to natural soap making using time-honored cold process techniques and plant-based formulations.

Led by Sheila, founder of Nurture With Nature, with more than 30 years of experience in natural soap craftsmanship, these workshops combine technical knowledge with a calm and welcoming atmosphere.

Participants actively create soap during the session and gain a clear understanding of ingredients, formulation, and process.

The Craft of Natural Soap Making

Natural soap making is both practical and precise. In our workshops, you will be introduced to:

• The cold process soap-making method
• Plant-based oils and butters
• Essential oils and botanical additions
• Ingredient selection for balanced cleansing
• The science behind saponification

The focus is on quality materials, intentional formulation, and understanding what differentiates natural soap from mass-produced alternatives.

No prior experience is required.
