DIY Product Bonanza - Christmas Gifts

Get creative this Christmas with a hands-on workshop focused on making your own natural, low-tox and low-waste products with Sharka from Donut waste! Participants will get to make a body cream to take home. Please bring a recycled jar to put product in (50 - 120ml).

The session will also introduce four additional DIY products, covering their ingredients, benefits and how to make them at home. Discover simple, affordable and sustainable alternatives to store-bought products that make thoughtful homemade Christmas gifts.

Participants will receive the full workshop presentation with all recipes, along with practical guidance on sourcing materials, best practices and using local ingredients to create their own products at home.
