A few weeks ago one of the moms groups I belong to had a spa party. One of the activities was a 'make your own bath salt' table. It was so pretty I decided to put my own twist on it and make Valentine's Day gifts for the babe's teachers. Can you believe Valentine's Day is just over two weeks away!?
I picked up some supplies: Epsom Salt, Sea Salt, Small Glass Jars, Dried Lavender, Dried Rose Buds, Red Ribbon, A paper bag, Essential Oil, Red Glitter Paint
I cut the side of the paper bag to make gift tags and added a giant glitter heart:
I mixed 2 parts Epson Salt to 1 part Sea Salt:
I mixed in the dried lavender:
I created a 'junk mail funnel' to fill the jars:
I then added the dried rose buds on the very top:
TADAA!! Teacher gifts ready to be delivered:
Budget breakdown:
- Epsom Salt - $16 at Target
- Sea Salt - already had
- Small Glass Jars - $1 each at Michael's (x10)
- Dried Lavender - $1.99 at a local market
- Dried Rose Buds - $1.99 at a local market
- Red Ribbon - had on hand
- A paper bag - had from groceries
- Essential Oil - had on hand
- Red Glitter Paint - had on hand
Totaling $30 for 10 gifts or $3 each, but I have about 90% of the Epsom Salt/Lavender mix left. You better believe I'm going to be taking LOOOONNNG baths. :)
