If you’ve been wanting to try out cold process soap making but have been intimidated by the lye and the mixing and the temperatures, well, the folks at Creativebug are offering a free video class. I haven’t taken it (and I’m just sharing this, no financial relationship) but based on the description you’ll get a recipe to download and then you’ll just follow along. Probably too late for holiday gifts, but this is a GREAT winter hobby. Ask me how I know :). Find the class here.

DIY Christmas Cherry Body Scrub
If you love simple handmade gifts that still feel festive and special, this DIY Christmas Cherry Body Scrub from CraftBits is such a fun little project. It is bright, pretty, and has that sweet cherry scent that makes it feel perfect for Christmas gifting.
What I like about this tutorial is how easy it is to pull together. The scrub uses granulated sugar, sweet almond oil or another carrier oil, red cherry fragrance oil, and a touch of mica powder for color, so it feels like one of those projects you can make quickly but still package up beautifully.
It is the kind of bath and body recipe that works really well for teacher gifts, stocking stuffers, hostess gifts, or just a little festive treat for yourself. The pretty pink-red color and cherry fragrance give it a cheerful Christmas feel without needing anything too complicated.
The tutorial itself is wonderfully straightforward too. You simply combine the ingredients well and store the finished scrub in an airtight container, which makes this a lovely beginner-friendly project for holiday crafting.
If you are looking for a quick Christmas body scrub recipe that feels handmade, giftable, and easy to recreate, this one is a sweet little pick.
