Bath Salts for Bath Salt Ornaments
Ingredients
- 3 cups Epsom Salt
- 5-10 drops food coloring in green I like gel colors the best
- 5-10 drops food coloring in red I like gel colors the best
- 3 drops peppermint essential oil or another safe essential oil
- 3 drops cinnamon essential oil or another safe essential oil
- 3 drops relaxing blended essential oil or another safe essential oil
Instructions
- Take 3 small glass or metal bowls and add 1 cup of epsom salt to each bowl. Do not use plastic bowls when working with essential oils unless you are going to dispose them after use.
- In one bowl add the green food coloring and relaxing blended essential oil. In the second bowl add the red food coloring and cinnamon essential oil. For the the last bowl add the peppermint essential oil and do not add any food coloring.
- I suggest wearing rubber or latex gloves for the next part so your hands don't get coloring or too much of the oils on them. Mix each bowl with your hands until all the food coloring and essential oils are well mixed. Use different gloves for each mixture. As you are mixing rub the epsom salts with your fingers to disperse the food coloring well. The more you rub the mixture together the better the color will mix in. If the mixture is wet after you are finished then spread each mixture out on sheets of parchment or wax paper to dry. If dry then just add it to the ornaments right away using a funnel.
