Today we looked at some recipes online and figured out we needed beeswax, shea butter or cocoa butter, coconut oil, and some type of natural dyes. I have coconut oil at home so we only needed beeswax, beet root powder (for the natural dye), and shea butter. We filled out the PO form and had a meeting with Mr. Smith and he approved it. Now we are going to plan out our 3D drawing and research how to best design file.

This relates to engineering because we have completed the defining the problem stage and did most of our background research as well as specified our requirements which are the first couple stages of the Engineering Design Process.
