Now that you have learned how to make your own hand soap.  You might want to give it as gifts!  This is a super cute way to present it as a gift or even to use in your own home!  It has always been one of my favorite hostess gifts!

Here is what you need:

  • Mason jar with lid
  • White or colored paint (if you want to paint the jar lid)
  • Outdoor Modge Podge
  • Paintbrush
  • Nail
  • Hammer
  • Old Dish or hand soap with pump dispenser

First you need to decide if you want to paint you mason jar lid.  If you do then you want to take the two lid parts and pain them, let them dry and then seal them with the Modge Podge sealer.  Once that is done you will want to put the lid back on the jar and carefully make a hole in the middle of the lid.

To do this, you will need to use a nail and a hammer and carefully pound the nail through the metal lid making a large enough hole that the pump straw can fit inside.

Then place in the pump and fill with soap or lotion!  There you have it!

    Thanks for the post! I just did this for dishsoap on my kitchen counter. Looks so much cuter than a big bottle sitting there. Love it ::)
