Bathed in Love with Lavender

Several good friends are getting married this summer and are busy planning beautiful weddings(congrats to Jessica and John--the newlyweds!). If you're going to be planning a wedding this summer, here's a great idea that I found in a local magazine.

Many couples give out items with the bride and groom's name and wedding date printed on it for guests to take home. A nice gift idea to set on the tables for guests to take home are lavender bath salts. Purchase small glass jars, fill with Dead Sea salts and Epsom salts (mixture is 1/2 of each), then add several drops of Young Living lavender essential oil (10-15 drops). Stir together, then seal. Print labels with the bride and groom's names and wedding date and a short message. Guests will enjoy the lovely fragrance of lavender and the feeling of being "bathed in love"!
