Receipe for scented bath salts and bed buddy
 

My son made me some three years ago and I've used it sparingly because it's so sweet. He walked in the other night on my bubblebath and asked me why I didn't use his stuff. I told him that I just loved that he made it, but saw the look in his eyes that he wanted me to use it so I did. Sniff it's all gone but I got a nice snuggle later on!

Homemade Bath Salts!



2 1/2 lb. Epsom Salts

Food Coloring

Perfume or scented oil

Combine Epsom salts with food coloring and perfume in a large bowl. Mix well so color is even. Put into smaller jars and let stand 4-6 weeks before using. This causes the odor to blend with the salts.

This bath salt is very soothing and makes for a very relaxed bath.

And might I add, Epsom salts are excellent for helping with muscle ache and pain. I always have them handy. They've been used for years and years for therapeutic baths.

Problem is, to really get the best use for aches and pain, you have to use a good amount, at least a cup full. When I really ache from the myofascia or fibro, I use a LOT in my bath and soak for 20 minutes.

Nice idea Julie!

And DiMarie...can I be one of your best friends that you are giving those lovely gifts to????? :D

I'm excited about this and hope I can throw some of these together for Christmas presents.

Great
