In a<br />another smaller bowl mix together all liquids and add to salts, stirring<br />well. You should let them sit so they can soak up the scent and the coloring<br />allof the way through. After they have sat for about two hours take them and<br />placethem in jars with cork stoppers. To create a good seal dip the cork in melted<br />wax (greento match salts) and put cork into bottle.Blog Queenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03622240845832628131noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1240205318236278970.post-24817962493156988422009-10-25T16:59:00.000-07:002009-10-25T16:59:00.386-07:00Aspen Dreams Bath SaltsAspen Dreams Bath Salts<br /><br />This scent is very woody, and is suited for soothing your muscles and<br />relaxing in the tub. It is very masculine in scent, I think. I enjoy this<br />after a long day at work, it makes me feel comfortable and content. Women<br />love it as well as men do.<br /><br />The ingredients are:<br />2 cups of Epsom salts (or a mixture epsom/sea)<br />2 tablespoons of baking soda<br /><br />essential oils:<br />5 drops of rosewood<br />2 drops cedarwood<br />2 drops Chamomile<br /><br />a nice jar with a tight fitting lid<br /><br />To make the salts:<br />Mix the salts and baking soda in a bowl very well.<br />Mix oils in a small cup. Take them and pour them evenly over the salt.<br />Mix the two very well.<br />Let sit for over an hour before placing in a jar and sealing.<br />If you are going to color these use yellow and red to make a light brown.Blog Queenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03622240845832628131noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1240205318236278970.post-52376452487919554742009-10-15T16:59:00.001-07:002009-10-15T16:59:54.717-07:00Balancing Fizzy Bath SaltsBalancing Fizzy Bath Salts<br /><br />Sea Salt--3 tbsp<br />Baking Soda--3 tbsp<br />Citric Acid--1 tbsp<br />Essential Oils--8 drops<br />Jar--4 oz<br /><br />Choose 3 or 4 oils from these essential oils: Bergamot, Frankincense,<br />Geranium, Lavender, Palmarosa, Rose, and Rosewood.<br /><br />Add sea salt, baking soda, citric acid and oils to jar.

Mix together all the ingredients. Take a teaspoon<br />of the dough and roll it gently into a ball about 1" in diameter. Continue<br />doing this with all the dough and place the balls on an ungreased cookie<br />sheet. (You can decorate the cookies with clove buds, anise seeds, or dried<br />citurs peel if you wish.) Bake the cookies for 10 minutes, until they are<br />lightly browned. Do not overbake. Allow the cookies to cool completely.<br />To use, drop 1 or 2 cookies into a warm bath and allow to dissolve. Do not<br />eat! Yield: 24 cookies, enough for 12+ baths.Blog Queenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03622240845832628131noreply@blogger.com0
