Description

I put the time quite high cause I made about a dozen altogher but it doesn't take long. I just pulled various how to's off the internet and followed instructions on the kit I bought. Each box contains - 1 small beeswax candle 1 small scented soap 1 lip balm

Instructions

1. I bought a beeswax candle kit and followed the instructions for a small, basic floating candle but there are plenty of youtube how to's also.

2. I made my soaps using a melt-able clear soap base and added dried botanicals and a cherry fragrance oil. I didn't have any soap moulds so used a silicone ice cube tray.

3. Lip balm was made by melting vasaline and adding peppermint essence and edible lustre before pouring into tubs.

4. Finally, make origami boxes to present it all in, I used paper my daughter had printed on to make it more personal but you could use anything obviously. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZS8zS8p98M
