Sometimes in all of the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, kids can take a little extra coaxing to settle into their routines and get into the bath tub.

This project was designed with those kids (mine included!) in mind. It's a simple variation of my Animal Melt and Pour Scrubbies project - except with Christmas themed nylon scrubbies.

For this project, you'll need:

  • A basic understanding of Melt and Pour Soap Making
  • Some clear and/or white melt and pour soap base
  • Fragrance or essential oil
  • Colorant and/or mica
  • A container or mold of some sort that will fit your nylon scrubbie (I'm using a slice of 3" PVC pipe with an end cap)
    You can use anything you like for the mold - a yogurt container, small plastic bowl or jar. Just be sure that you'll be able to get the soap out of it once it's hardened.
  • A nylon scrubbie
Assemble your materials and ingredients and we're ready to get started.
