Milk Bath Powder Recipe
Equal parts of:
Salt
Baking Soda
Powdered Milk
You can just mix all three and pour in your bath. Usually 1 cup of
the combined ingredients is good for one bath.
To make it a little fancier, I pop all three in a blender and blend
it on the highest setting til it's all powder, then I'll drop in some
of my favorite essential oil. When it's done, pour into the bottles
that have the cork lids. Depending on the size, you can get them for
about a dollar a piece. Then melt a crayon of your favorite color,
make sure the lid is on the bottle tight, then dip the lid into the
hot wax and let cool, then redip a couple more times, letting it cool
between each dip. This makes a really pretty wax seal, and looks
very fancy.
If you have some tiny, dried flowers or herbs, you can stick them in
the hot wax after the last dip. They don't have to be placed in a
neat fashion. Just stick them in there and it turns out really
nice. They'll dry in there and it looks like you've paid lots of
money for it. These make great gifts!
I made them for about a year, and did it this way, and I made some
good side money.
