How to Make Natural Salt & Sugar Scrubs, Bath Tea, and Bath Salts

On Sunday, I taught a Healing Herbal Scrubs & Soaks workshop at the Pace University dorms. There were seventeen students (my biggest hands-on workshop yet) and we all had a great time!


I'd love to take this opportunity to share with you some recipes, tips, and tricks to creating your own custom natural bath products that will make you smile too.

DIY Easy No-Sew Floral Drawer Sachets

Easy No-Sew Floral Drawer Sachets make beautiful and inexpensive "just because" gifts, last minute hostess gifts, and holiday stocking stuffers. This project can be completed in 10 minutes or less, from set up to clean up. Bonus: Not only is crafting an awesome stress relieving activity in its own right, the smell of the herbs will lift your spirit and calm your nerves.


To make your own Easy No-Sew Floral Drawer Sachets, you'll need:

  • scissors, bowl, and spoon
  • square of cotton fabric or cheese cloth; 6" x 6" or larger is a good size
  • one handful of your favorite dried herbs, flowers, and/or citrus peels
  • 5 drops of essential oil(s) (optional)
  • ribbon, twine, yarn, or other strong string; at least 6"
  • tea tag with pleasant quote or affirmation and string attached (optional)
