1. Apricot Freesia Tarts
2. Apple Tart Soap
3. Aspen Dreams Bath Salts

This scent is very woody, and is suited for soothing your muscles and relaxing in the tub. It is very masculine in scent, I think. I enjoy this after a long day at work, it makes me feel comfortable and content. Women love it as well as men do.

The ingredients are:
2 cups of Epsom salts (or a mixture epsom/sea)
2 tablespoons of baking soda
essential oils:
5 drops of rosewood
2 drops cedarwood
2 drops Chamomile
a nice jar with a tight fitting lid

To make the salts:
Mix the salts and baking soda in a bowl very well.
Mix oils in a small cup. Take them and pour them evenly over the salt.
Mix the two very well.
Let sit for over an hour before placing in a jar and sealing.
If you are going to color these use yellow and red to make a light brown.

Angel Dust

Add this project with the Guardian Angel Bag

Make a paper tag, with the name “Angel Dust” and with these instructions:

“For a little magic in your life, close your eyes, sprinkle some on and make a wish.  It it sparkles, you wish will come true!”

Place about 1/4 c. of regular table salt in a large ziplock bag and a couple tsps. of coarse clear glitter (the irridescent ones) and 3 – 4 drops of essential or floral oi.  Shake the bag to mix contents.  Test it on a paper towel to make sure the oil doesn’t stain the paper, and if it does, add mor of the dry ingredients until it doesn’t.  If you don’t have essential oil, use anything that smells nice (i.e. cologne or vanilla extract, you get the picture).  This quantity makes about 8 little packages.
Envelope Instructions:

Make 8 small envelopes using angel, victoria, floral or whatever you choose.
Glue sides of envelope with any good paper glue.  Sela the flap with a temprary glue stick.  Place about 1/2 tsp. of the Angel Dust in a baggie, or you can also use those little jewlery plastic bags, they sell it at the craft stores.  Makes it easier for openning.  Place one in each envelope.
