WHAT YOU’LL NEED
2 tbsp. beeswax pellets 1 tbsp. coconut oil (use refined if you don’t want a coconut smell mixed in with your fragrance) 5 drops of cinnamon leaf essential oil (don’t use cinnamon BARK oil on your skin, so make sure it’s cinnamon LEAF) ADDITIONAL SUPPLIES: Craft locket, chain, and jump ring to make a long necklace (or buy one pre-made) Double boiler or glass heat-proof bowl and saucepan Pourable container with a spout
Lip Balm Locket
HOW TO DO IT
Add beeswax and coconut oil to a glass heat-proof bowl or double boiler. 1. Place your bowl or double boiler over water at medium boil, melting contents and stirring every so often. 2. While that melts, open your locket and prop it up with tape so that one side is flat and level. Once your oil and wax is melted, take off heat and cool slightly. 3. Add cinnamon essential oil and stir. Pour your mixture into a container that has a spout. 4. Pour mixture into half of the locket and allow to cool completely and solidify. Repeat on other side. 5. If the mixture in your pourable container solidified before you got to pouring the second half, just remelt. Once you balm solidifies, your locket is ready to wear! 6.
My daughter and I have always loved to do projects together, and this one was easy to fit into our busy schedules. We went with matching pendants, but you can customize the container and the flavors.
