About: Hello, I enjoy creating art in just about any medium available I use recycled materials when possible and exchanging ideas and learning new ideas on how to save time and money.

A simple yet effective balm for cuts, scrapes, burns and insect bites.

Step 1: Gather Your Materials

Organic refined coconut oil, raw local honey, 100% yellow beeswax, Calendula oil, Tea tree, Lavender, and clove essential oils, stick mixer, an induction cooker and a metal tin.

Step 2: Oils and Honey

Add 1/4 cup coconut oil, 1/4 calendula oil and 2 teaspoons of raw honey.

Step 3: Mix It Up a Bit!

Now take your stick mixer and mix the oil and honey together just a few seconds.

Step 4: Set the Heat

Next set your induction cooker to low making sure not to go over 100 F. You can also use a double boiler and a thermometer if you don't have an induction cooker.

Step 5: Add Beeswax

Next add 4 TBS of yellow beeswax let it melt away into the oil.

Step 6: Essential Oils Time

Now add 20 drops of Tea tree e.o., 10 drops of Lavender e.o., and last but not least, 5 drops of Clove e.o.
