It's been quiet with this challenge because everyone is so busy wrapping up the end of year and getting ready for Christmas, but this weeks entries did NOT disappoint. It was great getting four entries in the last two days of the challenge!! Some people are working on getting the materials ready for their build, whatever that might be - we're pretty excited about what's in the works!

Who are Build-IT?

Build-it are about empowering and strengthening DIY projects, how to tutorials and life hacks. They were set up to reward high quality DIY and 'how to' projects and you can earn 'build' tokens by using recommended tags such as #diy, #build-it, #how-to, #doityourself and #build. They even have a condensor - https://build-it.io/.

Natural Medicine often sees these tags alongside #naturalmedicine because many of our folk are equally into self sufficiency and resourcefulness, making their own rather than buying from a store. We've run challenges like this before where we've seen all kinds of 'make your own' projects such as making your own deodorant or clothes washing powder, and of course lots of yummy healthy food recipes!!

This week's entries win both BUILD and LOTUS tokens - congratulations! They also go into the running for the final 150 Steem which will be an awesome Christmas present! Get your entries in asap - don't wait til the last minute as there are tokens to be won every week, and the last week entries may not recieve any tokens as we would have already given them all away!

The Challenge (In Case You Missed It)

This challenge is a little different because we're going to ask you to 'make' your own project from scratch - something you have never made before but always wanted to. We want you to document it as a step by step 'how to' in an engaging and creative a way as possible.

Try to choose something challenging! We love Build-It's tag line: DO IT NOW! This could be a great opportunity to start that project you've been putting off for ages!

You must 'build' or 'make' something that relates to 'natural health' - this, of course, is very broad! And remember, Christmas is COMING! Some ideas:

Make your own bath salts to gift to a friend
Build your own altar for meditative rituals
Build an outdoor fire bath for self-care
Make your own deodorant
Make your own apple cider vinegar or try pickling for the first time
Set up a self watering system for your permaculture garden
Make your own still for essential oils
Make a hydrosol out of your favourite herb and package for gifting
Try making your own vitamin pills, tea or herbal cookies
Make your own soap
Make your own colloidal silver
Make your own vegan cheese
