Lemon Bath Salts

I found this idea on the internet. I love taking epsom baths with euclyptus spearmint. it makes my whole house smell like it. anyways im gonna try this out. i will let you know how it goes!

Lemon Scented Bath Salts



1 cup of Epsom Salts
1/2 teaspoon Lemon Oil
2 or 3 drops of yellow food coloring
Combine all ingredients in a bowl, stirring well to distribute the color and fragrance. Set aside overnight. Stir again and pour into a decorative jar. Makes one cup.

For a layered look, divide the epsom salts into two bowls. Add 1/4 teaspoon lemon oil to each bowl. Add 2 drops of lemon food coloring to one of the bowls. Stir each bowl thoroughly to distribute the color and scent, set aside overnight, then layer the two colors in a jar.

To use, add one or two tablespoons to warm bath water.
I got this idea from allfreecrafts.com

Creative Arts

A couple weeks ago my and my sisters Audrey, and Ashley all had craft night. Its something we do every once in awhile. I love it. We did these wall hangings. They are just a canvas ($5 at wal-mart) and got some pretty scrapbook paper from roberts (.50-$1.00 a sheet) and some modge podge ($3.00) which is the most amazing thing on earth, i use it alllll the time. and you just modge podge the paper on the canvas real thick, let dry over night and tada you have beautiful wall art. its a lot of fun, easy, and cheap, and the good thing about it is you can match it so easy to your house or however you want. Try it!

Pretty-ness

Anyone that knows my mommy knows that she has beautiful gardens all around there house. And everytime i leave i have to make it a point to go and cut the flowers so i can bring them home with me. Anyways, when i was walking through there yard on the 4th of july on one side of the house she had these gorgeous flowers that were yellow and purple. Never had a thought before how gorgeous those colors are together. Now those are probably my favorite colors to coordinate. Anywho. love ya!

Mushy Love Stuff

This past weekend i went down to st.george and had an AMAZING 4 days with my love and one of my best friends kainoa. Now that its monday and i'm back at work, i am realizing randomly how much and how deep my love is for my husband nic. I really have never met or been around somebody that makes me feel so whole and at peace with life and love. I am so lucky that i found him so young. He would truly do anything to make me happy or to even smile, and he does. I am so grateful for him, and how he supports and loves all that i do. He really is my everything, and i honestly find myself falling deeper inlove with him every second of the day. He is my rock. One of my old bosses asked me when i was engaged if i honestly thought out of 6 billion people in the world i only have one soul mate......i thought really hard and long about that question, and i can say..yes i do, that might make me naive, but its something that i believe with my whole heart and soul. I dont ever want to be one of those people that takes that for granted and now i have found myself doing exactly that, life just does that to you i guess. I am truly lucky and blessed to have him in my life as not only my husband but as my best friend and soul mate! I love you baby with all my heart and all my being! muah!
