Here are the projects and the links attached to each that goes through the step by step instructions, resources, and random rabbit trails I run down while blogging. Because. I. Can.
I made some of these last year for my friends hosting Halloween parties at their house.
First: Holiday Soaps
The sign of a truly thoughtful hostess is when the party extends into the bathroom. I made that up. It sounded good. Wait, nope....it really didn't. Unless you don't have holiday appropriate soap in your bathroom. Then, you should ignore me. Really, I made these in an effort to make my friend's little boys squeal with joy. And wash their hands. Get it, hands? Monster hand soap. Some-bod-y is lame. Somebody talks in third person. Somebody is moving on.

I also made these soaps just because.
I used the same steps from the monster hand soaps, but I just poured the melted soap into a glass dish (with a spider ring) after I sprayed it with Pam so it was easy to pull out when it hardened.
...and then Cake in a JarReally, need I explain the importance of gifts that are edible? If so: #1 It's edible #2 It's edible. #3 The awesome thing about a jar is that you don't have to be a master at piping little designs on cupcakes, the jar does the talking. People think you are clever, and they don't even care that Betty Crocker made your cake, and ziplock is in charge of the design techniques. Hello, traveling cupcake. I die a little every time. P.s. These are also shippable. Yay!
