1 cup Shea Butter1 cup Coconut oil1 cup Beeswax4 tablespoons Zinc oxide powder (Sophie recommends non nano)1 teaspoon essential oil: sandalwood Heat a double boiler - I place a glass bowl over a pot of boiling water. Place the butter, oil and pellets in the bowl and heat until completely melted (3-4 minutes). Remove from heat, and whisk in zinc oxide and 1tsp of essential oil - pour into molds. Lotion bars will set in a couple of hours (1 hour in the fridge). But you can keep in the molds for as long as you want, and best to do this if you aren't going to use right away.

Attach and center your lazy susan metal hardware – These come in varied shapes, I recommend using the square pieces. Attach your block of wood, using your drill (separating each by a piece of felt). Finally, using paint, stencil and a paint brush, customize your lazy susan! You can also add embellishments, lace, glitter, and of course, some mod podge!
