Seller's description

Lump of Coal Soap | Funny Christmas Stocking Stuffer for Men & Women

Looking for a funny Christmas stocking stuffer for men, a lump of coal gag gift, or a hilarious White Elephant gift for someone on Santa's naughty list? Our handmade Lump of Coal Soap is a real 3.5 oz bar of activated charcoal soap, hand-stamped and tucked into a reusable cotton drawstring bag that says "On the Naughty List." It's a funny Christmas gift for Dad, your husband, boyfriend, brother, adult son, best friend, or anyone who has been just naughty enough to deserve a lump of coal this year.

For Someone Who's Been a Little Naughty This Year

You know the person. The husband who insists he's been very good this year despite considerable evidence to the contrary. The brother who's been making questionable decisions since approximately 1997. The coworker who steals the last piece of cake from the break room. Or your best friend who really ought to know better by now.

I think we all know at least one person who deserves a lump of coal in their Christmas stocking.

The trouble is, actual coal isn't a particularly useful gift. It makes a mess, doesn't smell very nice, and isn't something you'd be especially excited to unwrap on Christmas morning.

So we made a better version.

Our Lump of Coal Soap looks like a little piece of coal, but it's actually a beautiful handmade bar of activated charcoal soap, lightly scented with peppermint and tea tree essential oils. We hand stamp each bar and tuck it into a natural cotton drawstring bag printed with "On the Naughty List."

It's a little mischievous, but still tasteful enough to give your father-in-law. Well, depending on your father-in-law.

Imagine Christmas morning when Dad reaches into his stocking and pulls out a little cotton bag. He reads "On the Naughty List," opens it up, and finds an actual lump of black soap.

He'll probably laugh, accuse you of being the naughty one, and then take it upstairs to use in the shower.

That's my favorite kind of gag gift. Something that gets a laugh but doesn't end up in the junk drawer by New Year's.

Real Handmade Soap, Not Just a Gag Gift

Of course, we couldn't just make an ordinary bar of black soap and call it a day.

We've been making handmade soap for more than 15 years, and we take our soap pretty seriously, even when we're making something ridiculous.

Our Lump of Coal Soap is made using the traditional cold-process method with our blend of coconut oil, olive oil, and tallow. It produces a thick, rich, creamy lather that's lovely for everyday washing and shaving.

We add activated charcoal to give the soap its deep black appearance and scent it with a fresh blend of peppermint and tea tree essential oils. No synthetic fragrance oils.

The peppermint gives it a cool, minty fragrance, while tea tree adds a fresh herbal note. It's a nice, clean scent that works equally well for men and women.

And honestly, there's something pretty great about having a bar of black soap sitting beside the sink. It's a little unexpected, looks handsome in a simple soap dish, and makes your guest bathroom considerably more interesting.

Our traditional cold-process soaps also retain the glycerin naturally produced during soapmaking, which is one of the things I appreciate about making soap the old-fashioned way.

So underneath the funny packaging, there's a genuinely good handmade bar of soap.

The Perfect Funny Christmas Stocking Stuffer

I think finding good stocking stuffers for adults is one of the trickiest parts of Christmas shopping.

Buying the main presents is usually straightforward. But filling stockings for grown men who already own everything? That's another story.

Your husband doesn't need another flashlight. Dad has enough grilling tools. Your brother says he doesn't want anything, which is helpful as always. And your adult son probably isn't going to get too excited about another pair of socks.

A lump of coal, on the other hand, seems appropriate.

This funny charcoal soap makes a great Christmas stocking stuffer for husbands, dads, boyfriends, brothers, sons, grandpas, uncles, and fathers-in-law.

It's also a hilarious little Christmas gift for women who appreciate a good joke. Your sister, wife, girlfriend, best friend, or favorite coworker might have earned a place on Santa's naughty list too.

And because this is a real, useful bar of handmade soap, you can feel pretty good about giving it to someone who doesn't want more clutter.

A gift that gets used up instead of taking up space in a drawer? I think that's a win.

White Elephant Gifts, Secret Santa & Christmas Gag Gifts

If you're going to a White Elephant gift exchange this Christmas and need something funny, inexpensive, and suitable for adults, this little bag of coal is a pretty good candidate.

It's also great for an office Secret Santa gift, family Christmas party, holiday gift exchange, funny coworker gift, or a little present for the boss who has been particularly demanding this year.

I especially like it for those gift exchanges where everyone is supposed to bring something silly but nobody wants to go home with a plastic singing fish.

This is a much more useful alternative.

The "On the Naughty List" cotton bag makes the joke immediately obvious, and you don't need to do any extra wrapping to make it look like a little present.

It's also fun to tuck one into a larger Christmas gift basket, pair it with a nice washcloth, or leave one in the guest bathroom when family comes to visit over the holidays.

Whether you're shopping for a funny gift for Dad, a Secret Santa present under your spending limit, or a gag gift for someone who has everything, this is one of those little gifts that practically wraps itself.

A Good Gift for Minimalists, Too

Here's another thing I like about giving handmade soap. It's something people actually need.

We all have those friends and family members who are trying to simplify their lives. They're cleaning out closets, donating things they don't use, and asking everyone not to give them more stuff for Christmas.

Which makes shopping for them a little awkward.

A beautiful bar of handmade soap is a nice solution. They can use it, enjoy it, and eventually there's nothing left to store.

The cotton drawstring bag is reusable too. It's handy for little travel items, jewelry, or other small things that tend to get lost in a suitcase.

So if you're shopping for a minimalist, someone who appreciates reusable packaging, or just a guy who insists he doesn't need anything, our Lump of Coal Soap is a practical little gift with a pretty good sense of humor.

Handmade on Our Little Michigan Flower Farm

I'm Holly, the owner of The Little Flower Soap Co., and our soap studio is in a renovated barn on our little two-acre flower farm in Chelsea, Michigan.

We've been making handmade soaps, lip balms, bath bombs, and other bath and body products for more than 15 years. Our small team mixes, pours, cuts, cures, stamps, and wraps the soaps right here in our studio.

Most days we're making lovely lavender soaps, pretty botanical gift boxes, and all sorts of nice-smelling things. And then there are the days when we're stamping lumps of coal and putting people on the naughty list.

I have to admit, those are pretty fun days too.

I love making products that are beautiful and useful, but I also think gifts should have a little personality. Not everything needs to be terribly serious.

Especially soap.

Around Christmas, our studio gets pretty busy packing gifts and shipping little packages all over the country. I love imagining these lumps of coal showing up in stockings on Christmas morning, especially when I know they're going to get a few laughs.

Thanks for letting our little Michigan business be part of your holiday traditions.
