She's So Crafty!!!

Merry Christmas to all of you!!! I am absolutely thankful that God has graced my family and I with another year! This Christmas is especially exciting for us! Our new son is celebrating his first Christmas! It’s always a joy to see the children wake up on Christmas morning with the anticipation of opening their gifts. Seeing the joy on their faces as they tear open those gifts is priceless. I thank God that he continues to bless us to be able to provide for our NEEDS and a few of those WANTS on the list.

After opening gifts, the family has worked up an appetite for a good hearty breakfast. Yummo!!!! But there’s no time to sit on it! It’s time to get dressed and prepared hit the road to fellowship with family on this glorious day!! All the hugging, laughing, playing games and more good eating has us all pooped and ready to relax the rest of the evening away! What a better way to start that relaxation than with a nice warm bath and some cozy pajamas. Today I’m going to share a She’s so Crafty Bath Salt recipe with you that is sure to get you relaxed.  You might ask, “Why bath salt?” Well, bath salts are wonderful for pulling the impurities out of the skin. This recipe also contains baking soda, which is good for soothing and smoothing the skin. The essence oil is the perfect touch for adding aromatherapy to this lovely, beneficial combination of ingredients. So here goes!

Peppermint Bath Salt
You will need:
1 glass container (I used a spaghetti sauce jar. It’s a great idea to start saving up your glass jars with the lids. They are always handy for the products you will make.)
¼ cup of bicarbonate of soda (baking soda)
½ cup of sea salt
3-4 drops of essence oil (I used 6 drops of peppermint essence oil because I like my fragrance to be strong)
Step 1
Add the baking soda and sea salt to the jar.
Step 2
Add your favorite essence oil drops.
Step 3
Put the lid on the jar and shake well to mix all of the ingredients together.


Guess what?? That’s it! You’ve made your very own luxurious bath salt! Just play with the recipe and add different essence oils for different aromatherapy experiences!  If you like the recipe, please post, share this link and/or leave your comments to let me know what you think!!! Have fun!
