occasions. It's easy and inexpensive to make, plus it's always
appreciated by the recipient. There's just something about homemade
gifts that speaks more to the recipient than any store-bought item
could.
But if you need more convincing to start your own homemade bath
salt, there's plenty more to this argument.

versatile. Possible reasons for giving homemade bath salt include:
baby showers, bridal showers, birthdays, Christmas, Hanukah, other
religious holidays, anniversaries, moving gifts, romantic gifts,
friend gifts, celebrations, graduations, Mother's Day,
Grandparent's Day, etc.
With so many difference gift giving possibilities, you may find
yourself making large containers of homemade bath salt and keeping
it on hand for any last-minute gifts.
Homemade bath salt is also a great way to personalize a gift.
Because you're choosing the various ingredients as well as the
presentation, you can create a gift that shows how much you care
without it being a lot of work.
For example, a baby shower gift of homemade bath salt might be
for mom, but that's no reason not to put the salt into a jar and
then tie a rattle or pacifier to the outside. Or a wedding shower
gift can include a lovely basket or a spa gift certificate.
A lot of people don't realize that homemade bath salt is also
very healthy for the body as well as the overall mind. Because bath
salt helps the body to release toxins into the water, the user can
feel refreshed and relaxed.
And without the added chemicals that are found in store bought
brands, homemade bath salt can be even more nourishing to the body.
You don't have to add any ingredients that might cause a reaction
in the recipient, nor do you have to add any coloring that they
might sensitive to.
Homemade bath salt makes for a love way to greet guests that
might be staying with you for a while. By placing a simple bottle
of homemade bath salt on a guest towel with a note about how to use
it, guests will feel like they are being pampered as well as being
a special guest. And even if they don't use it, they can bring it
home as a special reminder of their stay with you.
The personalization of homemade bath salt goes beyond the
occasion as well as the packaging. By including a note about the
reasons why certain ingredients were chosen, the recipient can feel
like they are genuinely cared for and appreciated.

relaxing herbs and fragrances? Or perhaps they want to feel
rejuvenated once in a while (when they actually get to spend a
night with their spouse - alone!).
And of course, homemade bath salt is simple to make with a few
ingredients and a long afternoon. It's doesn't need to be intricate
or overly complicated in order to fulfill its purpose. With a few
herbs and a few drops of essential oils, the homemade bath salt can
be ready to prepare and give to that special someone.

someone for an occasion, but with a lot more style and class. This
is a gift that shows that you care about the person's health and
well-being, without having to spend a lot of time or money. And the
best part? If the person enjoys the homemade bath salt that they
received, you can always help them refill their jar.
