You will need to have your soap making utensils ready and available before you begin. You can collect things for little cost, but remember soap making is a chemical process, so there are a few details you need to know about the supplies you use. If you intend to sell soap and start a business invest in good soap making supplies. These are intended to withstand high temperatures and hold up during contact with chemical changes. If you are learning as a hobby you do not need to invest in expensive supplies. You can make molds from boxes and get mixing utensils from a thrift store. It is good to keep your soap making supplies completely separate from your cooking supplies.
