I know. It's only October. And I'm about to say the "H" word. (Holidays!) But there's a reason, ya'll. That reason is the annual, unavoidable time vortex that opens in early November, sucks us all in, then spits us out disoriented, cranky, overfed and overtired on January 2.
Where did the time go? And what about all these half-done projects?
This year will be different, I tell myself. This year I'll plan ahead. This year I'll start early.
But then, like last year, I don't.
The truth is, I adore handmade holiday gifts. Kid-made? Even better. And we strive to make most – if not all – of our gifts each year. But somehow December always arrives about a month too soon, and we struggle to finish making half of the gifts that we've put on our lists.
In case you can relate, I've got your back.
This season we put together a stash of DIY Organic Lip Balm Kits for you or your kids to pick up now so you'll have plenty of time to make and decorate your balms before the holidays. No pressure, no rush, and no hunting around for all of the ingredients and supplies you need to pull it together.
And at the sale price below each balm comes in at less than half of what I sell a comparable balm for at LüSa, so you can't beat the price.

Our DIY Organic Lip Balm Kit contains everything you need to make oodles of lip balm with top quality organic ingredients. Organic avocado oil, organic beeswax, organic castor oil, organic sunflower oil, and essential oils. These are some of the identical ingredients we use in our own lip balms!
I wrote the recipes and instructions so that adults and kids alike can follow them, making it an easy project for kids who want to craft their own holiday gifts for friends, teachers, and neighbors without a lot of adult intervention.
This week only I'm offering an early-bird discount on our DIY Lip Balm Kit of 15% off (to encourage you to start sooner rather than later on your holiday crafting). The ingredients are super fresh and will keep for up to a year, so there's no need to worry if you don't get to it right away.
To receive your discount, simply order your DIY Organic Lip Balm Kit, then use coupon code "DIY15CLEAN" for your discount (expires 10/19/17). (Please do not combine with other coupons or discounts.)
But wait! There's more!


If you're feeling more needle-and-thread crafty, I've also placed both of my sewing patterns from my Etsy shop on sale. They are 20% off for the month of October! (No coupon required.)
Now. Get out there and make stuff!
I bought one of your kits recently and I’m excited to get started soon with making some for holiday gifts. I wonder if you have any tips on how to make labels for the lip balm. Thanks!
Hi Natalie! Thanks for your order! We decorate the labels using colorful (or not!) fine-tip permanent markers. Happy holidays!
