Instructions

  1. Clean jars and remove any old labels.
  2. Depending on the amount of salts you will make will determine your exact measurements for each ingredient. The mixture I started with were:
  • 1 cup, Epsom Salts
  • 1/4 cup, Sea Salt
  • 2 to 3 tbsp, Baking Soda
  • 6 or 7 drops, Glycerin
  1. Clean jars and remove any old labels.
  2. Depending on the amount of salts you will make will determine your exact measurements for each ingredient
  3. After mixed together, pour the mixture in a jar until it is full. Pour back into bowl.
  4. If you are going to make more than one fragrance or color, pour the mixture into separate bowls at this point.
  5. When in separate bowls, add your fragrance and color. Depending on how strong you prefer, start with 6 to 8 drops of oil and increase from there. Stir thoroughly. Then add a few drops of color.
  6. To get the lavender, I used about 5 drops of red and about 8 drops of blue. Stir again until you get the desired color.
  7. Place the labels onto the decorative jar before you add the mixture.
  8. Add the salts to the jar(s) using a funnel.
  9. Decorate with ribbon, raffia or other decorations you have.
