BATH SALTS

What You Need:
· 2 C Epsom Salts
· 1 C Sea Salt or Rock Salt
· 1/4 tsp Glycerine
· Food Colors
· Essential Oils or Perfume
· Jars with Lids/Stoppers
Here's How:
1. Mix salts together in a bowl.
2. Stir in remaining ingredients. Generally a drop of two of fragrance is sufficient. Use ingredients containing water with care (color, certain fragrances), since too much water will dissolve salt.
3. Spoon salts into the jars and seal them. Decorative labels listing ingredients are nice!
Tips:
1. Make certain jars are absolutely dry.
2. Kitchen fragrances work well.
3. Not all essential oils are appropriate for bathing!
4. Colors or fragrances may be omitted, if desired, for kids with chemical sensitivities.
5. Some essential oils are naturally colored (e.g., chamomile is blue).
