Bath Salts Christmas Ornaments

I was in Michael’s Craft Store a few days ago and saw these clear  Christmas ornaments.  I am going to a Christmas craft show this weekend, and needed some “quick and easy” additions to the other products I am taking.  They were perfect for creating some Bath Salts Christmas Ornaments, and would make great stocking stuffers, teacher’s and Secret Santa gifts.

I already had the ingredients I needed at home.  You can buy “bath salts” but I chose to use Epsom salts and sea salt.  Salts can be a little drying to your skin, so I added baking soda, and coconut oil.  I also found some dried milk I had used for a milk bath recipe, and threw some of that in!  Here’s the basic recipe. You can use sweet almond or jojoba oil if have that, too.

BATH SALTS RECIPE

1 cup Epsom salts

1 cup sea salt

2 Tablespoons Baking Soda

1 Tablespoon coconut oil (fractioned, because it’s liquid)

1-2 Tablespoons powdered milk (optional)

I added lavender buds and lavender essential oil for a lavender salt

I added red mica for the peppermint salts, (you could use a little red food coloring), and peppermint essential oil

For the last scent, I added a few drops of green food coloring, and vanilla essential oil.

After mixing the three separate scents, I used a rubber funnel to pour the salts into the ornament.

I love the way these turned out, and hopefully they will be a big hit at the craft show.  If not,  I know some people who will be getting bath salts in their stockings!

These won’t make it to my Etsy shop, but you can check out my other products here:  www.Gardenchick.etsy.com.
