Fashionable Christmas Gifts #8

When I don't know what people want for Christmas, so is there something I can make and everyone will love? Of course there is. Every year my friends come over and we make gifts. One thing we always make our bath fizzes. People love them, and unlike the store bought kinds, they really work. They make your bath pink and smell great. They bubble like a soda pop and leave you smelling fresh and fabulous. If your giving it to a guy a there are guy fragrances and you can add a sporty tag, with directions and something saying Merry Christmas and Happy New Years.  So here is how to make bath snow balls:

Tools and materials

2 cups Epson salt 

2 table spoons water

A few drops essential oils

1 drop food coloring, (plus more if desired)

Special equipment: plastic pipette, large or small round bath-ball molds, and storage jars

Directions

 1.Stir together Epsom salts and water in mixing bowl.  Using pipette, add oil, 1 drop at a time, until strength of scent is to your liking. Add food coloring, 1 drop at a time, until desired shade is achieved; stir until color is even throughout.
  
2.Spoon a generous amount of mixture (more than necessary) into 1/2 of a bath ball mold. Pack firmly. Repeat, packing mixture into second half of mold. Press pieces together until they connect.. Remove top half of mold very carefully. Let bath ball stand, mold side down, overnight (set on an overturned jar lid to keep it from tipping over.

3.Remove mold carefully. Invert, and let ball dry completely, 2 to 3 days more. Transfer to jars.

 This is one of the many ways to wrap your snowball fizzes.
