There's something special about a handmade gift, and this holiday soap making class makes it easy to create one worth giving. With expert guidance every step of the way, guests design a festive main soap, a travel-size bar and a set of minis, turning a gentle organic vegetable glycerin and goat milk base into functional little works of art for the skin.

Colors come only from plants and clays, fragrance comes only from essential oils, and the soaps are completely preservative-free, so they're kind to even sensitive skin. Guests choose two colors and one scent, mix and pour their recipe, then unwind while everything sets before unmolding the finished soaps. Compostable equipment and packaging keep the experience as thoughtful as the gifts themselves. Open to ages 9 and up, with 8-year-olds welcome alongside an adult, it's a cheerful seasonal outing for families, friends and anyone checking names off their gift list.
