**Cold Process Method**: Start by gathering your ingredients: lye, water, and oils (like olive or coconut oil). Mix the lye with water (carefully, since it can be dangerous), then combine it with the oils. Blend until it reaches "trace," then pour it into a mold and let it cure for about 4-6 weeks.

**Melt and Pour Method**: This is super easy! Just buy a melt-and-pour soap base from a craft store. Cut it into chunks, melt it in the microwave, and then add your favorite scents or colors. Pour it into molds and let it cool. Voilà, homemade soap!

**Glycerin Soap**: Similar to the melt-and-pour method, but you can buy glycerin soap base. Melt it, add some essential oils, maybe some dried herbs or flowers, and then pour it into molds. It’s a fun way to customize your soap!

**Hot Process Method**: This one’s a bit quicker than the cold process. You mix your lye and water, then heat your oils and add the lye solution. Cook it on low heat until it thickens, then pour it into molds. It usually only needs a few days to cure!
