There are times when I like to sit in a bath with baby oil.
Why use baby oil when you can create your own bath oil right from home that can benefit your body more?
Not to mention who doesn't like a good body massage?
Oils infused with fresh herbs and blossoms are
great for calming the heart and gladdening of emotions.
There are many different ways you can make these.
If you make them make sure you label what they are.
First you want to decide what oil base you want to use.
Find the type of glass jar you want to use and decide if you want
to use flowers or herbs.
Starting out it is suggested to use a 1:10 ratio of plant material to oil.
Pour your oil of choice into your glass jar, depending
on what type of jar you use you may need a funnel.
When it comes to the flowers or herbs you want to make sure they are dry, do not use fresh! Put your dried flowers or herbs into the jar, if need be use a wooden chopstick to poke it in.
Cover the jar with cheesecloth and place in the warm sun for a day or 2.
Next replace the cheesecloth with a proper lid, label & or tag.
It can store up to 1 month in fridge, if it
turns solid in the cold just warm it up before using.
