Scented Bath Salts

Lisa Hayward's Note:

This is another idea for home-made gifts. I discovered when I made this that you can also use body splash or your favorite perfume for fragrance.

The idea of adding essential oils and food colour, in particular, is a real nice one. I tried this with peppermint essential oil and it left my skin feeling cool, soft and smooth. Thanks for posting!

Great and very easy to make. I made Brown sugar and fig. Smelled so good!

This is so easy to make and so much healthier to use than the bath salts you buy in the store. The whole house smelled fragrant the day I made them and the day I bottled them!!!
