Elly, you’re more important than you know. I got interested in soap making last year. I needed guidance and found you. I was lucky enough to find you. Half of this Kansas soap maker’s recipes are yours. My book of recipes are “Elly’s pine tar” or “Elly’s Castile”. It’s you. I can’t overdo my gratitude. I can’t.
Thank you very much, I appreciate your comment immensely. So glad to help as many as possible.
THE reason I can make soap and sour dough now is because of you, Elly! Thank you for being such a genuine soul and for so generously sharing your many gifts with all of us. We love you!♥
Thank you Tracy, you're very welcome!
Hi Elly! You were the initial inspiration for me in learning how to make soap, and I can't thank you enough! 💐Since coming to your channel, my family and I have gleaned from your presentations and recipes, and are making our own soaps now. No more harsh chemicals from store bought soaps in our home! Thanks so much Elly!🤗❣
That's so good Martina! Thank you :)
Taking a passion and turning it into full time money takes so much of the joy away. You are wise to follow your heart. I make soap for a hobby and give it all away. If I turned it into a job, I expect the enjoyment would go. I’ve learned so much from you and appreciate your generosity ❤ so happy you’re not going away from RUclips!🎉😊
Thanks, yes the same thing happened with me and my soap making/selling, then youtube! I am feeling a lot freer and excited again now that it's all firmly in 'hobby' status :)
Elly, you are heaven sent! LITERALLY just received my first order of oils and soap moulds. You gave me the courage and knowledge to finally start. I recently stepped away from my own business that started as a hobby. I was so drained, I didn't want to create anymore because I stopped enjoying it. BEST OF LUCK TO YOU
Thanks! Have fun :)
Looking forward to your fixing lye heavy soap video. Sending lots of love 💖 from sunny 🌞 Arizona 🌵. Take care of yourself and each other.
Thanks so much Suzi :)
I totally understand the huge amount of editing, working behind the scenes and more. I hope you enjoy your job Elle
I'm so glad you are not shutting down the channel. I am looking forward to the re-batch soap video. I have several first soaps which did not turn out quite right. (my error) I keep looking for a good second hand crock pot to use. Please keep doing your wonderful videos. You have inspired me so much.
Thanks Brenda, I'm more excited than ever to keep going now. If feels free again. Have you got a stainless steel pot you can use? You don't need a crock pot. Check out what I did in this video ruclips.net/video/HjdA8qmB0D8/видео.html
Elly, you are the reason i am a soap maker. Nobody like you out there, I’m writing from Cape Breton Island. Thank you!
Ellie, you are so real and personal and that’s what makes you different from so many folks. Thank you for sharing and I was thrilled to see the passion for getting back with people. I feel sorry for folks who have only ever worked from home and have no idea how important a social setting the “office” can be. Congrats and as you can see, there are a whole lot of soapers supporting you. 🇨🇦
The best for your new job!!! I really appreciate all you have done regarding soap making, I love your video, and I am very thankful that you are going to continue with Elly's Everyday and some new soap. I learn to make soap from you, looking at your teaching videos and at your passion. Thank you so much!!!🤗🤗🤗🤗
Best wishes in your job and I hope you return to the joy of soaping once again! I just found CP Soaping in the last few months, and your videos have been so informative. I appreciate your explanations and your approach!
I am happy for you following what makes you complete! You have truly helped me in my soap making journey! Your videos are outstanding and I am so grateful I found your channel. Thank you also for teaching what to do with mistakes in soap. God Bless you and I pray you get everything you want in life :)
Happy new year to you as well and congratulations on your new job!
Gosh, so great to see your video! I am so new to soap making, and your videos have been such an inspiration. I can't even imagine keeping up a channel like this. The thing that also comes to my mind is exactly what you said - the isolation!! I do pottery and soap, and while I do my soaping at home (alone), I have a membership to a local studio for my pottery because I need the connection to other people!! I oftentimes wish there was a "soaping studio that I could join! LOL! It can be very isolating. Thank you for sharing! Can't wait to see more - AND.... do what you need to do for YOU!!
Hi! Happy New Year! I am glad you are continuing to the page and doing what makes you happy! I started soap making because of you! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Thank you for all your sharing 🙏🏻
It has helped me a lot in my soapmaking journey 💚
You are so welcome :)
Elly, you are the reason I got into making soaps.
I really enjoy making soaps! So thank you! 👍
Elly you are my first tutor for making soap 3 years back I live in Dubai and start a new job as soap maker a great thanks for being my inspiration
Thank you So much, Elly! Your channel was the first channel I was addicted to when I began learning to make soap! I appreciate you and the passion you have for sharing knowledge! ❤️🥰
thank you so much i made my first patch of soap recently because my grandson ask for coffee soap for Christmas, i found your recipe easy to follow and turned out great, since then I’ve made your honey oatmeal, aloe Vera both cold process and hot process, already have people asking to buy my soaps. you are easy to follow and have a wonderful sweet and sincere personality, I’m so glad i found you
That's so good! Thank you :)
OMG.. I was just thinking about you Elly, and wondering how you were...and lo and behold ~ It is so great to see you again and most importantly ---> HAPPY..! That's because when you're happy... you have a light that is so beautiful when your smile connects with your inner child 10:55, and the blush at 11:06 endears you to us on a level seldom reached. ✍))) Thank You for all you have given, and knowing when to back off to keep that great kid you have inside enlivened~! Many Blessings Sister !!!
Thank you! You're very kind. I think fun is so important in life! When it's gone, you know something needs to shift 😊
Thank you for all the time you dedicate to teaching us. Thanks Elly
Good on you, it makes a big difference to your creativeness and mental health just to step back and breathe. I did the same going back to a soap hobby and getting back up to the hills and nature which I love. Thank you for your help and just come on UT when you feel like it.
Hola Elly! So glad to know you are back!!! Thanks to you I'm making my own soaps, and trying to grow a little business. Love your soaps, you inspired me so much...and I relate on what you shared in this video. Looking forward to watching new videos!!! Blessings from Miami!
You’re so sweet! You’re gonna make me cry too! It’s such a pleasure watching a genuine and kind person talking about my two fave hobbies.
Self love first!!! Thank you sooo much for helping me begin my soap journey. As I said before, you are an awesome teacher. I refer to your videos most everyday. I wish you the very best. It does not surprise me that you are a "Social Worker". You are so kind and willing to help many! Hugs!
Thanks 🌸
Thank you Elly!! I have learned so much from you!!❤️❤️
Thank you so much for your channel. I have come across you recently and have used your recipes and love them
Thanks so much, glad you're finding them helpful.
You’re an awesome & amazing lady. Thank you for all your hard work & tutorials. I’ve learned so much from you. I enjoy watching your vids
Happy for your new journey! I learned a lot about soapmaking from your channel, and also was contemplating whether to take this as a side income or just hobby. For now i decided i will see as the time goes by and test the waters. I really enjoyed your "making soap that sells" video and was wondering how to price our own handmade soap- probably could be an idea of your content? 😉
Thanks, I get that request quite a lot, but to be honest, it's a very tricky topic! Most people give up on making/selling soap once they find out how much it actually costs them to make and sell. The best operators I've seen get very efficient and focus on luxury soap with quite high prices! Just the way it is I think, which is why I prefer to make it just for myself and my loved ones :)
You’re so lovely and genuine, love what you share, soap and sourdough ❤
🤗
Ohhhh, rosemary soap! I infused olive oil with rosemary. I used my own recipe and used 30% water. It is so beautiful and a gorgeous green. Thank you for tge inspiration.
Oh wow!
That's beautiful that you recognize what you needed and worked it out...
Just found your channel and love it
Thanks so much! 😊
Well done for coming to these realizations - I once thought I wanted to make wedding dresses for a living, but soon realized that making sewing my living took the enjoyment out kf my passion. I LOVE your channel and look forward to whatever is ahead this year 🎉
Your channels have made my new year's regular video list. It was approaching 100, but is now down to 25. Thank you for sharing your process and experience over the years and especially most recently. I'll be retiring at age 68 or 70 (depending) which is but 4 or 6 years from now. Though I don't think I want to explore RUclips channel creation, I do want to explore part-time work that keeps me connecting and interacting with community members, so I appreciate your sentiment and return to your 2-day per week job. It's good to see you smile and feel motivated in a new way.
Thanks so much, I'm glad you can relate :)
Hi Elly, You have been a blessing to me over the years . I've learnt so much, one way or another. Unfortunately, I can't make soap now owing to an accident that I had 2 years ago,but I enjoy watching your videos. Keep up the good work and all the best for your new job. ❤😍🙋♀️🙏🤗
good on you Elly, always follow your bliss🥰 we appreciate you!
Thank you Elly you are so inspirational to so many of us
Thanks Elly. Your channel has been by far the best and most informative about soap making. Wish you luck with whatever you wish to do :)
Thank you so much!
Just love you Elly, I’ve learnt a lot off you, glad to see you doing you 🥰
I already left a comment but forgot to say Happy New Year to you! And, would you consider making charcoal soap and do a demo on that in your videos to come?
That's a great suggestion! I like charcoal soap a lot :)
Yay! ❤@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking
BIG hugs Elly! I am so happy you are doing what makes you happy. Doing things out of love is different than doing it for money. Congratulations, I wish you all the best always. You are a true inspiration to others. I'm just a newbie and soap making is a hobby for me. You've helped me so much by explaining things so a beginner could understand. I do have questions about dish soap [again], but will ask when another video is available. Much love from the US.
Thanks so much Belinda :)
Hi! I’m always here to listen and learn, when you’re able to teach. Love your videos, glad you’re back!
Hi Elly. I am watching some of your videos and they are very helpful. Thank you! I have a question please. My soap paste won't pass the clarity test. What do I do?
Congrats on the new job! I'll look forward to watching what ever you post in the future. I really should start watching your sourdough bread making channel. I've recently been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and sourdough is the only kind of bread that doesn't raise my blood sugar! I've just never learned how to make it so we buy it.
Thanks Arlene! Oh my goodness, 100% whole grain sourdough is the healthiest (and lowest GI I dare say) bread on the planet! Would love to see you there sometime :)
Lovely to see you again😃.. it has been my greatest pleasure to follow your channel for a couple of years now. I love you teaching and guiding all things soap. I think you have made the best choise to return to your job in the comunity and still keep this channel going. That way you have the best of two worlds and have your heart balanced in both places♥️☺️
Absolutely! Thanks Kirsten
So glad you've found a happy balance that works for you 💜 Please post the recipe for your rosemary soap once you fix the lye balance. All the best from Eastern Ontario Canada
I will do, thanks.
Glad you are coming back! How do you test for a soap to be lye heavy? Thank you.
Thanks Natalie! Check out these two videos:

Congratulations on the changes you are making for you. Keep sharing as you are able 😊
Thank you :)
Elly, you’ve always been my No 1 mentor & I appreciate you!
Your one day sourdough bread is the one recipe I make every week. It turns out every time. So glad to see you back. Have a blessed day.
Thanks Lorraine, wonderful to hear. You too.
Thanks for all your work 😊
Thank you
So good to see your smiling face again Elly! Welcome back! ❤
We want the best for you Elly! Thank you soooo much for all that you do and share with us. Congrats on the in-person job! And I look forward to how the rosemary soap rebatches! ^_^ Cheers!
Awesome, thank you!
Congratulations on all of the changes!!! You will do absolutely wonderful in anything you do!
Thank you so much!!
Lovely to see you back. When you get time, can you please do a cold process shampoo bar. I don't have a crockpot and am not confident to use a microwave or stove method yet. x
Thanks, yes I really need to do a video on this topic :)
Be free, Elly! You've made my soap so beautiful, and accompanied me as I made soap. Take a break and be happy!
Aww that's so cool! Yay for us :)
I’m glad to hear that you are following your heart and continuing with what is most important to your wellbeing. Wishing you all the best! 😊
Thank you Elly, you have inspired me for quite some time, and always look forward to learning more from you. I am glad you have figured a way to continue to share what you love, yet finding balance. We all have to find what works for us. I too changed direction at the end of last year, mine was from selling soaps etc, unfortunately a very recent cancer diagnose has offered a new challenge. We all must follow our heart, and live with passion. From this Kiwi in NZ, Peace & Love (PS Love the aussie accent)
Thank you, I appreciate that. Take care x
😞 I recently found your channel and find so much inspiration from your knowledge and you way of teaching ❤
Why the sad face? I'm not going anywhere :)
Hello Elly, I am from India and l want to start a herbal psoap business... Your videos were very helpful to me, very informative but i want more information from you. As I live in a tropical environment and here majority of skin type is oily so can you suggest a oil combination that long last bt aslo cleanse skin. And i also want to ppask you about storage of the soaps. I have seen your video on storage bt i have a problem here in my country we have a lot of dust in the air. So if i leave the soaps out they will collect a lot of dust on them. So what should I do about this problem? Can you guide me? And here people like detan and skin brightening and refreshing soaps a lot as we get sun burns frequently . Can you suggest some soap recipies on them it will be very helpful.. thank you..😊
I’m happy you’re here to stay 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I appreciate all the videos you make. And thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us☺️
Thank you, you're welcome
Hi Elly❤
Love you too you're so sweet❤❤❤❤
Could you explain a bit about soaps using other liquids such as coconut milk or goat's milk. Is that not adding more water in the recipe and would that soap not require longer curing because of this? Also how much , say in 1000g of oils should i be using?
Another thing is additives such as clays ,walnut shell powder or oatmeal,how do we determine how much to put in. I have not come across any video to help with these questions.
Thank you, this page has more
Congratulations on your new job! Like others I had thought about making my own soap but didn’t try it after I discovered your you tube videos. Thankyou so much for making them :) lol about laundry liquid, mine is gel too but that’s ok, still used it and it works just fine :) hugs from the nearby Sunshine Coast xo
Thanks Robyn, I love the gel too! But some people really just want a liquid 😄
Hi Ella, I’m a new subscriber to your channel. I’m in the research stage of looking into making my own soaps. Thank you for all the work you have done and congratulations on your new part time job in your local community.
Thanks so much
Thanks for your transparency & sharing your experience with others who are in content creation. Its very helpful 💜. Appreciate your videos and look forward to seeing more of your work!
Thank you!
Elly, thank you soooo much for all your sharing. You're a excellent teacher. Congrats for the new job. My best wishes!
Thank you! 😃
I’m looking for some good essential oil blends for my soap making. Would you consider a video with essential oil recipes?
Hmmm, yes great suggestion. Thanks.
Happy new year Elly, really have missed you and its good to have you back here. I pray the new year turn out well and for the new creations I anticipate more uploads😅❤
Elly good for you! I have great respect for you and the decision you made! Thank you for being so honest with your viewers! I started up a business making soap and candles and found like you, after a period of time, the demand of keeping up really stole my original joy of soaping and candlemaking. I have learned so much from your videos and look forward to where the Lord leads you in 2024! I now make soap and candles for fun, family and friends!
Miss Ellie your an integral part of Australian soap making community, there’s not many aussies soapers on RUclips , you’ve really helped me and so many others ❤
Aww, thank you!
Aww, thank you!
Best wishes, Elly!
The best for you Elly💗
Thank you
Ella, we luv you too…please don’t stop sharing ❤
I won't. Thanks so much 💓
Welcome back Elly. Thank you for all your videos. Have a good weekend ❤
Thank you! You too!
You have one shot at this life, and you have to do what is right for you. I adore your soap making videos, and you have helped shape my budding business. Thank you for all you do! Take care of you!
I would be really interested in a video about how to fix a soap that didn’t turn out right whether it’s lye heavy or perhaps the lye didn’t melt correctly or the oils were not incorporated correctly. Basically an oops video on how to fix a messed up soap. Can’t wait for that one!
Good to see you Elly. Sounds a good plan for your life💜
Thanks Lyn, I think so.
Thanks, Elly. Glad you're back. I only use your soap making recipes and have been steadily making soaps for the past 3 years. I still fail at liquid laundry soap so looking forward to that video.
Oh I'm sorry to hear about that Annie, I hope future videos can help :)
Hey Elly, like all others I have learned a lot from your videos and my soaps turned out so good and still following to learn even more. More power to you… ❤
Thank you 🌺
Thank you for being so honest with us. A lot of people think you tubers have it made and it’s an easy job. They have no idea how much time and effort goes into every video. I bet it sometimes takes weeks to plan and record a simple 10 min video. I just recently discovered your channel and love all your advice will continue to watch and support you ❤
Thank you so much, I appreciate that a lot
All the best luck with your changes!! 🙏💕💐
We have to go with the flow, and keep on changing 🤗
Many blessings to you however you decide on doing it!! We love you, and are very grateful for all your info and input. It helped me immensely over the years of learning. Very grateful for you 🤗💐💕
Thank you! You too!
Congratulations Elly, for doing what lights you up and what you need to do for you!
It is SO much work and takes heaps of time. You've done really well and thank you so much for all you've shared with us.
I wish you well. Lots of love to you
❤❤❤
you are adorable, I learnt a lot from you! keep doing this as long as you enjoy it so please do it in a way you enjoy it :) ❤
Thank you so much!!
Looking forward to more laundry soap videos!!
More to come!

Hi Happy 2024 ✨So looking forward to your fixing too much lye soap video.
I would love to know how ends up too much 🤔
even you did calculate it in soap calculator?
🙏💕
Thanks :) Yes, I used a calculator but think I mis-weighed something unfortunately. I'm not sure what went wrong.
@@EllysEverydaySoapMaking Oh phew.. Even Genius like you
can make mistakes… so thank you so much for sharing your experience. 💕🙏
Elly, you were the first RUclipsr soap maker I stumbled upon and I am so grateful that happened! You educated me and gave me the confidence to pursue my hobby - it has been a fun and exciting journey! I am very happy that you are doing what is best for you and what fills your soul! As a retired social worker myself, it is evident that the profession will benefit from your reengagement in working in your community! Take good care and I am looking forward to see future videos! 💕💞
Oh thank you Monique! I'm not going back to social work, so to speak, but work more related to environment/food systems (related to environmental social work perhaps, it's all connected with social justice I think).
Yay YOU for setting healthy boundaries!! Take good care of yourself, and know how much we all value you ❤
Thanks so much 💕
Finding your balance, well done!
Congratulations on your new job. You go girl! You do what's good for you! Someone posted a post on RUclips today an it said something like... You be your crazy self, your friends will love you for it and those that don't, won't stick around for long. You don't need those toxic people in your life anyway! 💖🌞🌵😷
Thank you
Hello Elly,I was wondering if you can use essential oils in soap making, why couldn't a person use essential oils in liquid monomer for fragrance purposes? Please Answer
Yes, you can! I have made this kind of thing over the years. It's lovely. A solid perfume made with lip balm recipe is nice too.
Thank you so much for always being there❤
Yay 🎉, you just always look after yourself first . Congrats on the new job
Thanks :)
Congratulations Elly on your decision👏. All the best for 2024. I appreciate your videos with all your dedication & hard work
Good for you for taking care of yourself and pulling back. It can be so overwhelming to balance everything and Im happy for you setting boundaries for you/yourlife. I am grateful for whatever/whenever you can share. Thank you very much for sharing what you have, I've really enjoy your videos :)
Thanks so much
