Chocolate Mint Bath Salts


This was a fun DIY gift.
I started with a few drops of vanilla and a few drops of peppermint oil in a large bowl. (Easy on the peppermint, its strong!)
Then I filled the jar with the epsom salts. This was to measure the amount of salts I needed to mix. Then I poured a jar full of the salts into the vanilla/peppermint mixture and stirred thoroughly. Then I added a couple of Tbsp. of Cacao powder and stirred well. 
Decorate the jar.
Its so much better to make items such as these yourself because, #1 its cheaper, and #2 have you ever read the ingredients of what is in the stuff? You know exactly what you are bathing your body in.

Seed organization

My favorite tea (Barney and Sons) tin is the PERFECT size for my seed packets.
