Joanne says
How long are the salts good for once you make them & package them up? If I were to make these over the summer and gave as X-mas gifts, how long would they be good for after December? Lets say I made them in July, the person receiving would get in December, as a holiday gift – How long would the person receiving them have to use them before they go bad?
Heidi says
Hi Joanne ~ the colors and scents may fade over time, but I’ve personally found they last well for 1 – 2 years. Hope that helps! 🙂
Colleen Hoefling says

Aww ~ thank you, Wendy!
Marilyn Tavenner says
These are great gift ideas. I’ve just made some up and was wondering what the baking soda does? I’ve seen another recipe for sea salt with the Epsom. Just wondering. I made up Jasmine with one and Lavender with the other. Thanks for the awesome idea!
Darlene Pisch says
Will be making them for xmas along with my homemade candles. Thank for a beautiful evening.
Anne Thompson says
Where do you get the essential oils? My grandaughter loves these types of gifts.
Heidi says
Hi Anne ~ you can find them at Vitamin World, or online. I purchase most of mine on Amazon here: http://amzn.to/LTNm2V
Hope that helps! 😉
Tricia Stanley says
I love this receipe. Just a quick question, would the food coloring come off in the bath?
Thanks
Heidi says
Hi Tricia… the food coloring is so minimal it doesn’t affect the bath. You can just skip that step if you’d prefer. They smell just as yummy when left white! 😉
Jane says
Thank you for the recipes! I’m making the bath salts. I did go to the place you recommened for the oils, however I did not find Jasmine, but I did find Lavender.
Caitlyn says
Thank you for posting this. I have been thinking of making my own bath salts recently. How much would you suggest to put in to a bath?
Haily says
