Crafty Wednesday {bathtub tea}

A few weeks ago Rachael and I did a craft class at a 4-H camp for adults.  They asked us to do a simple, inexpensive craft and we thought Bathtub Tea would be perfect!

Bathtub Tea is a cute little name that we came up with for scented bath salts.  We made two kinds lavender and rose hip.  I'll give you the recipe for both in case you want to make them.

 

Bathtub Tea recipe

1 cup epsom salt or Himalayan sea salt 

1/4 cup dried lavender or rose hips

A few drops lavender or rose hip oil

You can double or triple this recipe depending on how big your container is.  We used small jelly jars so one cup was plenty! 

Lavender is a scent used for relaxation and rose hips are used for detoxification.

We found epsom salt near the beauty and bath products at Walmart. 

We found dried rose hips and lavender in the bulk section of the organic grocery store in our town.  

We also got the essential oils at the organic grocery store.  I have also seen essential oils at TJ Maxx and Amazon. 

We added a round sticker to the top and you can also add ribbon to your jars too.

I have used these salts in my bath and they are wonderful!  Very fragrant and they would make the perfect little gift.

Enjoy!
