What You’ll Need
  

  • 1 cup Epsom salts
  • 1/2 cup dried peony petals crushed
  • 1/4 cup fine Himalayan pink salt
  • 1/4 cup coarse Himalayan pink salt
  • Jars (and a scoop) for gifting

Equipment

  • spice grinder
  • mason jars

Directions
 

  1. Crumble the dried peony petals by hand, or pulse them in a herb grinder, until you have 1/2 cup crushed petals (leave some bigger pieces if you like).
  2. Stir the petals into the salts until mixed.
  3. Pack into jars, with a scoop if you like.

Notes

Standard tub: 1/2 cup in a warm bath; soaker tub: 1 cup. Soak 20 minutes. Put a strainer over the drain to catch petals for compost, or put the salts in a paper tea filter or muslin bag. Petals must be fully dry; store airtight. Safety: patch test; keep dry; petals can clog drains.
