Making Salts...

So...Koleen and I have decided to delve into the world of bath salts and scrubs. After coming home a month or so ago, I was wondering what I could do for some $$ without having to get a "job" and punch a time clock right away. Koleen had discussed making bath salts before with her husband, but it just hadn't happened yet. So, I volunteered to be the "other half" of the salt-making adventure! :)

Here are some of the things we've been making so far:
Grapefruit Bath Salts
Lavender Bath Salts
and a "Hippy Blend" of Patchouli and Ylang Ylang oil Bath Salts
and some Lavender salt scrubs

We have a few more ideas to test and turn into products, but it is great fun doing it with a friend. Hopefully we can get a spot at some craft shows around Jackson for the Christmas crowd, and to get our name out there. We picked out our website address and name. We will be the Simply Natural Store, and our website will be www.simplynaturalstore.com. It isn't up and running yet, as we are still deciding on final product listings. But, we will be there soon!

Everything we are making is made with all natural ingredients. No fake colors that turn your bathtub or skin funny colors. We are using Sea Salts, Epsom Salts, Pure Essential Oils for fragrances, and some other natural ingredients too. Hopefully everyone will start caring as much about what they put on and in their bodies as we do. Not to mention, the all natural products have a much more pleasant smell! :)

So, stay tuned for more updates. We'll let you know when our site is up and running, and where we will be making appearances!
