The Crafty Adult: Homemade Deodorant

Thanks to myriad incoming-financial-crisis warnings from sources of varying intensity and trustworthiness, I’m officially looking into ways to lower my spending. Here is my weekly budget: groceries, $150; gas, $45; and sticks of Axe “Cherry Spritz” roll-on deodorant, $500. Do you think I could maybe cut down my costs by learning how to make deodorant at home? Austin Public Library’s weekly adult crafting night sure does! Join with other grownups to learn how to make your own “Cherry Spritz” facsimile that’s cheaper, more environmentally friendly, and, as APL claims, “actually works!” – James Scott
