  • Mother’s Day labels
  • Epsom salt
  • olive oil or jojoba oil or almond oil
  • essential oil of your choice
  • food coloring
  • bowl

6. Repeat to create more colors.

First take the Epsom salt and add two teaspoons of olive oil or any other fruit/vegetable oil of your choice. Next add 5–10 drops of your favorite essential oil. I used lavender, but you can use sandalwood, eucalyptus, or any smell you like. Then keep on adding two drops of food coloring and mix all the ingredients together.

At this point, pour the bath salts into the glass test tube. Use a funnel if you need it. Then download, print, and cut your Mother’s Day label and glue it in place. Repeat to create more colors and you’re done!

Place them in a gift box for an extra special touch ;)
