Homemade Bath Salts: Baked Apple Pie

image

Can you believe that fall is right around the corner!?  I can’t.  My kids start back at school today and before I know it, we will start seeing cooler temperatures and fall will arrive.  To keep my skin looking and feeling good, I will occasionally take a bath with Epsom salts.  They are amazing and make a great bath!  But today I decided to take it up a notch and create these yummy smelling baked apple pie homemade bath salts!  Yum!

Homemade-bath-salts-baked-apple-pie-Crafts-Unleashed-1These are similar to my Vanilla Bath Salts, Strawberry Bath Salts and my Vanilla Rose Petal Bath Salts…I clearly have a thing for homemade bath salts… But these are perfect for the fall!

Supplies needed to make your own apple pie homemade bath salts:

Homemade-bath-salts-baked-apple-pie-Crafts-Unleashed-6You will simply mix the salts and fragrance together until the desired scent is achieved!  If you’d like to make them look a little more like apple pie, you can add a few shakes of brown powdered food coloring and mix well.

Homemade-bath-salts-baked-apple-pie-Crafts-Unleashed-7Why powdered food coloring?  Because I don’t want the bath salts to get too wet prior to use.  You can use liquid food coloring sparingly, but then you will want to place your salts out on a cookie sheet and let them dry completely prior to placing them in a jar.  Powdered is easy to use and doesn’t add any wetness to the mixture so they are ready to be packaged or used right away.

Homemade-bath-salts-baked-apple-pie-Crafts-Unleashed-3Some people have asked if the coloring will add color to the bath and the answer is yes, a little bit.  If you add just a little bit of color the color will be so spread out in the bath that you don’t need to worry about coming out of the bath a different color!  It will slightly discolor the water but not enough to have a real impact.

Homemade-bath-salts-baked-apple-pie-Crafts-Unleashed-5Also, Epsom salts aren’t meant for use by everyone, so be sure to check the usage on them prior to use.

Then I simply placed these homemade bath salts in a cute little glass jar and they’re are ready to use or gift!

Homemade-bath-salts-baked-apple-pie-Crafts-Unleashed-2I actually love how these homemade bath salts turned out so much, I think I will be sending them in as teacher gifts the first day of school with my kiddos!  These would be a great teacher or back to school gift too.  But don’t worry, I still have a stash I am keeping for myself too because they smell amazing.

Top 10 Murder Victims Who Solved Their Own Murders

Image
Crime Lyra Radford August 9, 2017 The criminal justice system can be a bit tricky. Even if investigators think they know who committed a crime, they still have to be able to link a suspect to the scene without a shadow of a doubt. This is great for those wrongfully accused, but it’s downright infuriating when it helps the guilty get away with murder. Between stalled police investigations , poorly collected evidence , and subpar autopsy performances , the incompetence of the living can be enough to make the dead roll over in their graves. Or perhaps rise right up to solve their murder cases themselves. 10 The Ghost Of Fred Fisher Had To Point Out Where His Body Was In 1826, Australian farmer Frederick Fisher vanished .

How to make Bath Bombs with Pink Himalayan Salts

Homemade bath bombs are all the rage these days. They are so easy to DIY and there are a ton of different bath bomb recipes out there. I love how easy it is to personalize your bath fizzies’ scent with essential oils . Some of my favorites to use include Lavender (Relaxation) and Peppermint (Pick-Me-Up). Mom Always Finds Out may have received one or more of the products mentioned in this blog post for free or discounted price. Regardless, all opinions expressed are my own. This blog post may contain affiliate links. I have been on a Pink Himalayan salt kick ever since I learned about how good it is for you. This pretty pink salt is one of the purest salts on Earth and is high in mineral content. The fine- grained Pink Himalayan salt is good to use for bath bombs because it dissolves quicker than the larger sized salt crystals . If you don’t have any Pink Himalayan salt at home, you can substitute another type of salt. Epsom Salts work great in this recipe, too. The main thing to
