Make it yourself
Your final task for our make it yourself short course is to finish your google slide presentation that you have been working on weekly
Your slide show should include a slide each for: lip scrub, face mask, body scrub, bath bombs, soap, origami, lip balm, home cleaner and your own choice project (We have not made home cleaner but I have added a link below which you could make at home. The final your own choice project can be anything you like, slime, hair mask, moisturiser, make your own book, sewing project etc you do not have to make it as ingredients and materials are hard to come by at the moment but just make the slide and add a recipe to it so we could use it in the future)
Each slide must include:
- the product (i.e. lip balm)
- the purpose of the product (lip balm is used to help keep your lips soft and moisturised, often contains sunscreen to prevent sunburn)
- recipe or instructions on how to make it
- photos of us making it (remember to use our Google photo album email Miss Cameron if you need help getting access to these photos)
When you have completed this please share with Miss Cameron. This is your only task as in Term 2 you will have a new short course subject with another teacher.
Bonus tasks:
No sew easter bunny
See the video link below. All you need is an old sock, some string, wool or ribbon, felt tips and scissors. I don't like using food fo crafts so try and find something else to use as the filling (scrunched up paper, an old pillow and use the filling from that, old clothes ripped in to shreds, a plastic bag scrunched up i.e. bread bags work well)
Origami bunny
See video below, all you need is paper.
Bunny pull and reveal card
See video below, you will need paper or card, scissors, glue and colouring in pencils or felt tips. You don't need to have coloured card just colour in paper. Tip if you don't have glue you can make it using flour and water see the link below you only need a small bit so just use a 1-2 tablespoons.

To start take a look at some of these face mask recipes: (keep track of any of your favourite ones so you can write the recipe in your handmade book at the end)
Natural ingredients can help protect against the sun and soothe irritated skin, so they are better for the skin overall as long as you choose the right products for your skin needs. Chemicals can cause breakouts and other skin irritation, and natural skin care products are gentler on the skin.
