Cranberry Vanilla Shea Butter Soap
Are you planning to give any DIY gifts this year? If so, try this Cranberry Vanilla Shea Butter Soap, an easy homemade soap recipe perfect for gift giving!
It has a bit of a holiday feel with the inclusion of dried cranberries. I added some vanilla soap fragrance to give it a soft, pretty scent. The dried cranberries will make the soap last longer than if you used fresh.

Would be nice to make this to give as gifts for the holidays. I really need to get some soap making supplies.
I have never made my own soap, but the Cranberry Vanilla combination sounds just good enough to make me try!
Thanks for the detailed instructions to make these pretty soup
It’s important to note that when using a vanilla fragrance oil that your soap will turn brown unless you use a vanilla stabilizer.

I never knew it could be that easy to make these wonderful soap bars. I’m always scared, thinking you have to do something with a candy thermometer, etc. This sounds easy! Definitely pinning to try. 🙂
Pinned to save. I think this would be an excellent gift for Mother’s Day this year! Thanks for sharing Stacie!!
