A couple of months ago I discoverd these soaps from Pure & Natural, & One. The cool recycled paper packaging & the awesome smell hooked me. I bought 4 of them! Well, life got busy & they sat in my studio collecting dust, until today.
I got them down, began to play, & then I got an idea....
Are you up for an art challenge?
I've never hosted a blog party, swap or challenge before, but these little boxes inspire me!
I would love to see what you would do with them. If you want to accept my challenge, here's the skinny.
We'll post our creations on June 28.
Embellish & alter your box in your own personal style.
No postage, no pressure, just take a picture & show it off!
Grab my button & link to this post so everyone else can play along. I'll have Mr. Linky set up the day before our reveal.
Update:
I am going to Target to buy a bunch of the soaps. If you can't get it on your own, I'll send you a bar for $6. Just email me your information.

If I can find some of this soap this weekend I'll see if I can come up with something. The sounds like fun! Can't wait to see what everyone else comes up with.
I am SO IN my Texas friend...
This sounds like LOTS of fun!!!!
I'll have some fun embellishing the box but I have a huge feeling that I'm really REALLY going to enjoy the soap during my bubble baths ~ wooo hooo!!!
:)
Did I grab the right button???
Way to go- I'm so glad you decided on a party- it'll be fun.
...and did you know that the box you sent me isn't soap- it's this wonderful smelling lotion bar- I'm hooked!
I'm IN girl!!!! I am so in love with this wonderful box....now, what can I do, hmmmmmmm ~ this is a great idea Lisa!!! I'm going to love seeing everyone's version too.....have a great holiday weekend sweetie, hugs and love, Dawn
What a lovely idea!
But we don't have any soap packaging remotely like THIS in New Zealand.
Enjoy your fun challenge girls and I'll look forward to seeing the posts at the end of June!
Maybe next time!!
Thank you for sharing.
Well "POOH"..I would love to play darn it, but we don't have Target in Canada and it looks like the links only ship to the US...SIGH!!!! I will look forward to all the beauties when completed. Sounds like a fun challenge.

This sounds like a fun challenge. I'll go see if my Target has the soap.

I'm in, I'm in, I'm in!!!! I really need to flex my creative muscles with something I can actually make with my hands instead of the computer!!! This is a fabulous idea my friend!!!

Hi Lisa...This is such a wonderful idea! I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with! Hope you have a great holiday! Hugs,Ann
Hi Lisa:
I just finished writing my post about your event (for Monday's blog post). I'll be playing along for sure!
Thanks for being our hostess!
xoxo
Donna
PS. I hope you're enjoying your holiday weekend.
I'm so tempted to do this, Lisa. I'm very inexperience with this kind of thing AND I'm away from all my stuff! Maybe my challenge can be to do something with a few little things I find here and there....
xo
Claudia
That should be 'inexperienced' - when will I proofread before I post?
This should be fun :) I've placed the button & link on my blog and will pick up some of that soap this week.
Thanks for hosting the challenge.
Have a great remainder of the week!
I'm SO participating in this! I've posted it on my blog and really look forward to the creative challenge! Thanks!
count me in too! just hope i can find the container. diane vintagetickled pink
Not to be a party pooper- but I cannot support Target because they do not support the USA Military or their families. Hopefully the soap can be gotten somewhere else.
Hello Lisa~it was such a pleasure to have you stroll by for a visit and especially leaving me with such a sweet comment. I always enjoy getting to know new friends.
I look forward to seeing how you repurpose the soap boxes.
Will you be posting links to those who will be participating, I'd love to see everyone's designs?
Sweet wishes,
Sara
I am a newbie to your blog, you know Dawn, no one like her...she gets the word out when it comes to
reaching out and sharing. I would love to do your challenge....I will be at Target tomorrow.
This should be fun...Mary, Idaho
Have dutifully posted the badge and link on my blog! This is going to be fun, out to pick up the soap, hopefully, tomorrow from our Target. Thanks for hosting this challenge! Hmmmmm, perhaps I should think about hosting a challenge this summer too, never have done it before either but they are so much fun, and all the wonderful creations that come out of them...
I would really love to do this swap. Unfortunately when I went to Target today, they didn't have any. Did you need cash, or do you have a paypal account I can pay you through?
Let me know.
Wendy W
Haven't been to Target in ages {used to live there when my children were young!} but will put it on my errand list. This should be a fun challenge!
Hi Lisa
OK can't find the boxes at my target... Is there a name on the soap so I can call around?
What section did you find yours in?
How are you? Hope all is well.
I have been sick again but feeling better.
Maybe I should just get these from you, what do you think, do I have time?
Have a good night
Blessings
Rebecca
Cool idea! I love thinking outside the box;) If I can find them in my Target, I'll play:D
Eeek... that soaps expensive. It had better come with a hunky man in a speedo holding a luffa at that price!
This sounds like great fun! No Target for me here in Canada so I'll have to pass although I have to see if any of my friends are hopping over to do some cross border shopping in the next week or so.......ya nevah know!
Hey I found me some at Target..so count me in too...the sweet honey smells so good....
now what shall I do for this...ummm
thanks I always love a challenge and I love to recycle too...thanks for hosting,,I got you linked from my page
I have NEVER ever done anything like this, but would love to try! You remain my favorite! Pat
I would love to join and play along. Count me in.
Michele
Count me in! AND the soap is divine. I also bought the lip tune up with shea butter--utter divine!
Hi Rebecca,
I found you through Dawn at "The Feathered Nest." Sounds like a fun challenge to me, I love boxes. I Did my shopping at Target and found the products. Smells great. I've added the callenge link to my blog.
Sure sounds like a lot of fun but no way do I have the time...I am so far behind on my PC stuff that I'll be working on it from now until then. But I'll add your button to my blog to help spread the word.
This challene sounds like fun, must it bee a soep box exactly as you show - we don't have these in Denmark, or can I use another soap box, if I can I would love to participate.
Anni
This looks to fun! Came over from the feathered nest...
Really need to get back to blogging and this may be the inspiration...well afer we get back from target that is!
Oh Oh ! I have mine done and I love,love,love it....thanks for the challenge...see ya ont he 28th
I'll be joining in as I recieved one as a gift. I will be posting about it soon!

How did I MISS this post!?! Hope Target still has them! I love a challenge!
xxoo
Thanks Lisa for visiting my blog and for nice comment,and thanks for letting me know that I can participate in this fun and wonderful challenge.
Anni
count me in...I just altered one! such fun! xo natalea
I made a special trip to Target this weekend to find "One" soap. I didn't want to say I would join until I was sure I could get a box. It was a bit pricey but I loved the scent of the Pure Olive Oil soap and the feel of it was extraordinary! It's so smooth and soft, now I have to buy more! LOL. I made something this weekend with the box and will be posting it on the day of. Thanks for the inspiration.
This looks like so much fun-please count me in! I'm heading to Target today!
I would love to participate, will have to see if my Target has the soap...fingers crossed!
I think I will participate too...When I was child the was a soap called "Sweetheart" and I used to make stuff out of those boxes all the time! This is like deja vu! :)
I'm ready to roll, all done with a week to spare.
I'm going to try to get my creative act together for this one. Hopefully back to you with an entry -- or at least to check out everyone else's!
Found the soap and I added the link to my blog!
I'm In! Yea!!!!
