April's craft kit - Make your own Gemstone Soap!
This month we decided to have a bash at making handmade soap. Making soap is a lot easier than you might imagine, is fantastic for making cute little handmade gifts, and allows for no end of creativity once you know how!
We had a hard time deciding on a soap design, but having cooed over the many varieties of gemstone soaps knocking around the craft-sphere, thought this would be a great place to start.
This kit included:
Melt and pour soap base
Rose fragrance
3 x soap colourants
Cosmetic glitter
Soap mold
Mixing pots
Stirring sticks
Plastic dinosaurs!

We were really happy with how these turned out. And such a simple process! If you have the time to collect the ingredients, you can have a go at making these glittery nuggets by downloading the instructions here

And as if these gemstones were not lovely enough already, we also decided that it would be fun to include some little plastic dinosaurs, just in case you wanted to hide one inside!

These were also great for making some simple variations, for those who didn't want to go through all of the faff of chopping and carving.

Rarrrr!
As ever, we hope you loved your craft kit, and we can't wait to see your pics!
