The girls and I made some Candy Cane Bath Salts today for their dance teachers (and a couple of friends of mine). You can find recipes of all sorts on the net for these, but here's our version.
Epsom salt
Kosher salt
Peppermint essential oil
Red food coloring
Clean jars
In one bowl, combine 2 cups of Epsom salts and 1 cup of Kosher salt. Do the same in another bowl.
Add 4 drops of Peppermint essential oil to each bowl and mix it all up.

Now it's time to layer it all up!
Use a funnel and put in 1/2 cup of white salt in the jar.
Then put in 1/2 cup of red salt.

Then put in 1/2 cup of red salt.
Continue to layer the salt in this manner until the jar if full.
Add a cute topper, a label, and a couple of candy cans, and you have a cute little gift ANY dance teacher could use to pamper her tootsies!
Great tutorial. I need to try this. I'm getting the materials at the store now.
