Epsom Salts
Sea Salt
Essential oil
Potpourri herbs
Food coloring (optional)
Glycerin (optional)
Pretty bottles
1 Ribbon to decorate bottlesUsing
approx. 2-to-1 proportions Epsom Salt and sea salt,
mix in a big pan. This is your bath salt "base".
Measure about 1 cup of the salt mixture into each
zip-lock bag. Place about 4 drops of essential oil
into the salt mixture in each bag. Seal the bag and
mix the salt and oil.
Tear potpourri herbs into tiny
pieces and add to the bags. Zip bag closed and mix.
Add a drop or two of glycerin to the salts to soften
your skin. Add the food coloring to the salts. The
glycerin and the food coloring will also give the
salts a "wet look." Keep the salt mixture in the bag
and to mix it around once a day for 2 weeks. Then
fill decorative bottles and tie with ribbon.
