Wren loves adding nice~smelling, colourful stuff to the bathtub and having a soak.
The problem is that she’s not that sparing with her sprinkling, and those sprinkles don’t come cheap.
So this is an easy & cheap way for mums of girls keep up with the demand for bath salts. Not to mention fun for the kids to make.
What You’ll Need:
- 3 parts epsom salt
- 2 parts baking soda
- 1 part table salt
- Essential oils
- Food colouring
What To Do:
- Mix epsom salt, baking soda & table salt in a bowl thoroughly, with two or three drops essential oil and mix thoroughly to ensure it’s well~distributed.
- Add a small amount of food colouring and mix. Add more & mix if needed to get the colour you want.
- Store in an airtight container & add to bath in small amounts.
Other Thoughts:
- Most ages can enjoy this crafty activity.
- Take care when using essential oil that you don’t get it on sensitive skin or in eyes. Undiluted essential oils can cause painful, burn~like irritation.
Cute Idea. I’m going to have to try this.
