Guest guest Posted August 1, 2002 Report Share Posted August 1, 2002 Hi! I am new here. My name is Becky and I live in CT. I am a SAHM and I also make CP soap and am trying to teach myself about herbs/weeds for use in my soaps and in balms and salves. So far I am mostly getting confused on the proper way to infuse say plantain or chickweed into sweet almond or olive oil...these two would be for balms, not for soap, I think. Some places say to take fresh weed/herb, chopped up and placed in oil and let sit in dark spot for awhile....others say to first dry then crush and infuse. Are both ways exceptable? Is one way better than another? Any and all help is appreciated greatly! Any good educational/learning sites out there that anyone would like to share? Thanks in advance!
