DIY Star Wars Soaps are easy to make! Perfect to celebrate Star Wars The Force Awakens release! Great for party favors and stocking stuffers!

Star Wars: The Force Awakens is officially in theaters! I know, I know… there are plenty of people that saw it last night, but today is the actual release date.

I need to tell you a fun fact: When Charlie sees R2-D2, he insists it's Chopper. It took us awhile to figure out what the heck he was talking about, but then it clicked. Chopper is C1-10P on Star Wars Rebels (which is the Star Wars that he knows) and does resemble R2-D2. He still has a couple of years before I think he'll really be able to sit through the real Star Wars.

Star Wars Soap DIY

To celebrate, I want to share a super simple craft with you! You know they're my favorite kind! I knew I wanted to make some soap with my new essential oils and what better than some Star Wars shaped soap?

I don't claim to be a soap maker and I know there's a serious art to it, but our Star Wars soaps turned out awesome!

Star Wars Soap Supplies

You'll need:

  • clear glycerin soap base
  • Star Wars silicone molds
  • Soap Safe Colorant
  • essential oils

Star Wars Soap Making Process

Instructions:

  1. Cut about 12 oz of your soap base into small chunks.
  2. Melt in microwave safe dish for about 30 seconds, stir and heat another 30 seconds if needed.
  3. Separate into smaller dishes if you would like more than one color or scent.
  4. Add colorant (a few drops will do) to make color to your liking and stir. I think the darker colors show the details better.
  5. Add a few (about 3-5) drops of essential oil to your dyed melted soap base and stir to combine evenly.
  6. Pour into molds.
  7. Allow to cool a couple of hours or place in refrigerator for about an hour. (Note: Placing soap in refrigerator will likely lessen your fragrance, so maybe a drop or two extra of oil to combat that.)

See? I told you it was easy! I made several variations already!

Star Wars Soaps

If you're throwing a Star Wars party, these would make great party favors. I would just be sure to have a tag saying they are soap so they're not confused with something edible.

We'll be using them this year as Stocking Stuffers for the boys and attaching some of our DIY Star Wars Soaps to our gifts for the cousins. To do this, just pop one or two in a clear favor or treat bag and tie it up.

    I’ve never made soap before but really want to. I should try this out and make some. I gave my husband some of those molds a few years ago so this would be a great way to use them again!

    You should come link up at our Bloggers Spotlight party, we pin everything to our group board and have two separate link-ups, one for posts and one devoted to pins so you get even more exposure!

    How darling are these, and this is inspiring to me to try making soaps – it looks much more manageable than I would have guessed. They’d be great stocking stuffer gifts!

    Hi Christina. Thanks for this awesome tutorial. Do you have any idea approximately how many Star Wars characters a 2 pound soap base will make?

      Hi Romina,

      With these exact molds, you should be able to fill the molds about 3 times.
