Scented Bath Salts

Help Mom pamper herself with beautifully bottled, floral-scented bath

salts.



Instructions:

1. In a large bowl mix 2 cups Epsom salts and 1 cup baking soda. Dab a

few drops of lavender-scented oil onto a 2-x-4-inch scrap of white

cotton fabric and stir through mixture. Repeat with drops of food

coloring. Continue mixing scented oil and food coloring until desired

layer in a purchased apothecary jar (available in thrift shops).

2. Spread salts mixture onto a cookie sheet for several hours, stirring

several times. Wash and dry the jar. Spoon into jar.

3. Tie a baby spoon onto jar with ribbon.
