If you fancy yourself très Martha, sign up for one of Duross & Langel's monthly weekend workshops. The two-hour sessions will teach you how to make creamy body balms, so-pretty soaps, fragrant aromatherapy bars and more. But don’t expect to coast through class: Owner Steve Duross will (lovingly) pop-quiz you on your decisions. (Turns out vanilla doesn’t just “smell nice”; it comforts and calms.) Steve’s enthusiasm for the craft (and, well, his endearing penchant for cussing) will make for the most fun classroom you’ve been in since Home Ec. Plus, you get to take everything you make home — where you can act like you did it all yourself. (Workshops $35 per person. Duross & Langel, 1218 Locust St., 215-735-7075; durossandlangel.com.)
