For The Bath


ASPEN DREAMS BATH SALT

This scent is very woody, and is suited for soothing your muscles and relaxing in the tub. It is very masculine in scent, but women love it too. Try this after a long day at work, it makes you feel comfortable and content.

The ingredients are:
2 cups of Epsom salts (or a mixture epsom/sea)
2 tablespoons of baking soda
essential oils:
5 drops of rosewood
2 drops cedar wood
2 drops Chamomile
a nice jar with a tight fitting lid

To make the salts:
Mix the salts and baking soda in a bowl very well.
Mix oils in a small cup. Take them and pour them evenly over the salt.
Mix the two very well.
Let sit for over an hour before placing in a jar and sealing.
If you are going to color these use yellow and red to make a light brown.
