Homemade Chex Mix

This Homemade Chex Mix is a hit with the family, and friends. You could prepare this in advance for your next gathering, or to bring to a friends house.

There are a few ways to make Chex mix and I think the oven baking is so simple, and the best way. You cook it at a very low temperature, stirring the mixture every 20 minutes, it is easy to keep an eye on it to prevent burning/overcooking.

Some recipes have you melt the butter, and pour it over the ingredients. I have tried it that way, and it’s too soggy. The oven method is more time consuming, but so worth it in the end!

Bath Salts With Dried Flowers

With Valentines Day coming up, I’ve been coming up with homemade gift ideas for my favorite girls! These Bath Salts With Dried Flowers are the perfect solution for an easy, affordable gift idea. Not only do they smell good, and look pretty, these Bath Salts are also good for your skin.

Epsom Salt hydrates your skin, which is good for conditions such as eczema and psoriasis.

Himalayan pink salt absorbs dirt and toxins from the skin, balances pH levels, moisturizes dry skin, and reduces inflammation.

I used a blend of Clary Sage, Bergamot, and Ylang Ylang essential oils for a Valentines blend. What do I mean by a Valentine’s blend?, something sweet with a floral aroma!

You can customize these Bath Salts by adding different essential oils, omitting the flowers, adding different flowers, or you can even add different salts.

A HUGE thank you to SKS Bottle & Packaging for sponsoring this post!  I used these great frosted glass jars from SKS Bottle & Packaging. These frosted jars oomph up the packaging of these bath salts! I love working with this company, they are super friendly, and offer FAST shipping at no additional cost. I’ve used their jars, and bottles in my other homemade products, and they do not disappoint. Plus, I really, really like to support small businesses!

Rosemary Hair Oil

Rosemary Hair Oil is so easy to make and only requires 2 ingredients. Within minutes, you will have a homemade spa like experience at home without spending a fortune!

I chose to use argan oil for its nourishing and moisturizing properties, while rosemary oil stimulates the scalp and promotes hair growth. This oil is beneficial for those with dry or damaged hair, but it’s also a treat for any hair type. 

These jars are from SKS Bottle & Packaging, they are my new favorite company! They have a great selection of glass jars and tins for all my homemade products. I have the link for the jars and the other ingredients listed below.
