Bath Salts, Decor, & Mother’s Day Printables



The printable bath salt labels Jenn made are so fun and you can save them to your computer and print it out anytime you’d like. {{happy dance}}  She has several different options for you to choose from.
How to Make the Bath Salts:
2 cups  Epsom salts
1 cup coarse salt
1 cup baking soda
2-3 drops food coloring (optional)
5-7 drops of essential oil
  • Mix Epsom salts, baking soda and coarse salt together in a medium  stainless steel mixing bowl using a mixing spoon.
  • Add the food coloring and essential oil then quickly stir to avoid clumping.
  • More food coloring can be added, depending on how dark you would like your bath salts to be.  However, be careful that it is not too dark as some colors can stain the skin.
  • Let mixture sit in the bowl until the oil and food coloring is COMPLETELY DRYand ensure there are no clumps before packaging.
  • These look beautiful packaged in decorative jars with ribbon and gift tags.
  • They also look fantastic if you split your mixture in half before adding the food coloring so you can layer the colored bath salts with the non-colored bath salts in your decorative jar.
  • To use add 1/3 to 1/2 cup to your next bath.
These bath salts are such an easy gift idea you can give for Mother’s Day, teacher appreciation week, a party favor, or neighbor Christmas gift.  Sky’s the limit!
