Last Minute Father's Day Gift

Hi, Vicky blogging today! My project today is something you can actually create REALLY FAST with your kids - homemade tinted bath salts for HIM. Men like relaxing baths too! For this project I used my June Swirlydoos "antiquities" kit (featuring Bo Bunny products) and a recycled glass Kraft brand jam jar (plus some SUPER Helmar glue - see details below). BTW - Helmar is having a GREAT blog hop TODAY with fantastic prizes to be won!

Bath salt recipe (mix together very well):
2 cups epsom salts
1/2 cup coarse salt or sea salt
A few drops of food colouring
A few drops of essential oil (optional - for aromatherapy)

(these make super teacher gifts too :)
