Top 3 Tips On How To Beautifully Package Your Homemade Soaps!

If you'd like to make homemade soap, or maybe you already do, then how do we add some extra special features to finish of these beautiful products? After all there's no use in making wonderful products and then just giving someone a bar.......it probably wouldn't have the nicest effect.......your friends would probably think your telling them to have a shower and it definitely wouldn't do that gorgeous soap you made any justice.

So on that note let's get crafty and learn how to beautifully package your soap!

Soaps are relatively inexpensive to make so for a couple of dollars more and a bit of creativity you can hand out a lavish gift at very little expense. Here's a few ideas:

Tip 1

A beautiful way to package your soaps is to buy a pretty, inexpensive gift boxes from one of the dollar stores, line it with some tissue paper and place your home made soap on top, cover it with some more tissue paper and place the lid on. I like to then wrap a pretty ribbon around the box (also purchased from the dollar store) and attach my gift card. You can get some beautiful ribbons, gift cards and little bits and peices from the dollar stores with enough left over for future wrapping. You can also place your soaps into chiffon bags(like what potpourri comes in) these can be purchased from the dollar stores or your local art and craft supplier. You don't need anything else on the bags they look great with just the soaps inside on their own.

Tip 2

Check out the larger soap companies if you're stuck for ideas, online or offline they have a wonderful array of themed soaps and bath bombs all year round, it might just inspire you. Some examples of shops to check out are Lush, Bling, Crosby Bubble Bar, Candy Cane Bubble Bar or Rock Star Soap.

Tip 3:

Add 1-2 drops of food colouring to add colour to your soaps, but even better still, you can add glitter for zing and essential oils for scent, or even write messages using little diamantes. If you make soap from glycerine this is a fantastic way to add flowers, herbs even little kids toys as it is see through and has a fantastic effect for putting objects in it!

I hope this has helped you gain some ideas when it comes to presenting your products. But don't stop there! Your soaps can take on a theme for any event, for christmas try ginger soap in the shape of a gingerbread man! Little soaps designed as pudding's or the wrapping can be Christmas design. Your ideas can be limitless, and your friends and family are really going to enjoy it! begging you to make homemade soap all the time!
