Lavender Bath Salts
This recipe for Lavender Bath Salts is really easy, and a nice present to make and use.
You need some clean glass jars, fancy small and medium sized ones are best, and sufficient Epsom Salts (Magnesia Sulphurica) to fill your chosen jars.
In a bowl mix the Epsom Salts and several drops of pure Lavender oil, and a couple of drops of blue food coloring.
Mix together very well and spoon into the jars and seal lids well to keep moisture from making it clump together.
Label and give as a present to be used as desired, a tablespoon or so in the bath is lovely and relaxing.
You can use Rosemary oil and green food coloring for an invigorating Bath mix, and also you can use Washing Soda.
Both Epsom Salts and Washing Soda are easily and cheaply available from the supermarket or health food shop, and are soothing to the skin and muscles.
