DIY Small Gifts for Christmas

Every year for Christmas, I like to make up a bunch of small DIY gifts to use as hostess, neighbor, or teacher gifts.

I love giving a delicious homemade food gift or something else that’s practical or useful! So this year I purchased bars of natural goat’s milk soap.

I bought my soaps directly from Bend Soap Company, but I’ve also seen this brand for sale on Amazon or from Azure Standard. They had some delightful holiday scents this year, and I think their packaging is cute.

Soap Wrapping for Christmas Gifts

For the soap wrapping, I used 4 x 9-inch clear treat bags with a some dark brown paper filler and 5/8-inch red ticking stripe ribbon to tie the bags closed in a bow.

With each bar of soap, I included a natural sisal soap pouch. I thought the soap pouches were a cute addition to the gift!

These little mesh bags are essentially exfoliating loofahs to extend the life of the soap and help the soap foam.

I thought these little soap gifts turned out pretty cute and were well-received! I hope that one of my favorite soap wrapping ideas inspires you during the holidays, or for any time of the year!

Materials

1 bar of soap
1 natural sisal soap pouch
4 x 9-inch clear treat bag
Crinkle cut paper shred filler or excelsior
Ribbon, 5/8-inch or thinner (24-inches long)

Tools

Fabric scissors to trim ribbon

Instructions

Place a small amount of paper filler or excelsior in the bottom of the clear treat bag.
Fold the top of the sisal soap pouch over itself to make it about the same length as the bar of soap, then place it along with the bar of soap into the bag on top of the filler (make sure the label on the soap is showing from the outside of the bag).
Pinch the top of the bag together, then tie the bag closed with the ribbon in a bow. Trim ends of ribbon as desired.
