Making bath salts is incredibly easy!  Combine the following ingredients, trying to somewhat evenly distribute the essential oil. Once mixed well, store the bath salts in a glass container like this or this or this or this.  And tie a fun (and functional) spoon or scoop (like this or this or this) to the jar to make a super cute gift!
- 1 cup epsom salt
- ¼ cup sea salt
- ¼ cup baking soda
- 8-10 drops of essential oil (see below for ideas)
Depending on the size of your tub, use about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of this salt blend per bath.
