Siivouspäivä, cleaning day is a big day for friends of secondhand and urban culture in Helsinki.
On 22nd May, Siivouspäivä etkot(pre-party) event, we had 2 workshops with altogether 17 people participated hands-on making and other more people joined for discussions. Although the weather was rainy outside, we still successful completed this event and had fun. I hope everyone had a great experience with us and enjoy using their JooSoap when it’s ready. 🙂
NO ELECTRICITY NEEDED, ALL TOOLS WERE COMPACTED IN TWO BAGS WITH NEW DESIGN OF INSTRUCTION, WAITING LABELS, NOTECARDS. THE WORKSHOP STARTED FROM WATCHING JOOSOAP INTRODUCTION VIDEO TO HAVE A BRIEF UNDERSTANDING OF MAKING THIS TYPE OF ECO-SOAP.
Watch JooSoap introduction video again here.
DUE TO THE SAFETY CONCERN INSIDE OF THE HELSINGIN ENERGIA OFFICE, WE DID THE LYE WATER MIXING PART OUTSIDE. SOME PARTICIPANTS BROUGHT THEIR OWN CONTAINERS, SCENT OIL THEY LIKED, AND EVEN OWN USED COOKING OIL FROM HOME TO THE WORKSHOP.
Gloves on! Let’s start making!!
After wrote down the date of making, participants fond their way of packaging their JooSoaps.
Brainstorming!! (share your way of packaging with us!)
After 3 days, took JooSoap out of the moulds and cut into small pieces. They look great with Iitalla’s plate!!(photo from the participant Iiris, kiitos!)
