Having a bath at the end of a long day, is one of my favorite things to do. If you had a physical day doing manual labor, bent over working in the garden for too long (raising my hand!!!) or just had a tough work out, epsom salts in your bath can help ease the soreness you might experience.
Lavender is known to be a calming scent that is perfect to use before heading to bed. Lavender essential oil is used in this recipe as well as lavender flower buds . Either harvest your own dried lavender from your garden, learn how to grow your own lavender plants with winter sowing.
This simple lavender and epsom salt bath soak recipe combines these ingredients into a wonderful relaxing bath soak mixture. Perfect to use for yourself, your littles, or make it as a gift. If you enjoyed making this, check out my Easy DIY Lavender Bath Melts tutorial also!
