Homemade Bath Salts
2
cups Epsom Salts
1-2
cups Rock Salt (Kosher salt)
1
cup Baking Soda (optional)
Liquid Food Coloring
15
to 20 drops Fragrance Oil
Mix together in a plastic bag. Add a few
drops of fragrance oil and/or food coloring and knead to saturate the salts.
Let sit overnight with one corner open, so the mixture can breathe. Ours was
dry enough that night but we waited till next morning. We also gave each child
2 separate cups of this and let them color each a different color. Then we used
them like sand art to make different layers in baby food jars. Each girl had 2
jars. They also shared colors to make them even prettier.
