Variation 1: mix all ingredients, package in favorite bottle appropriate for gift giving season. If you wish to use food coloring, use caution so as not to stain fiberglass tubs.

Variation 2: The sea salts act as the base salts for this recipe. You can add whatever essential oils you prefer for scents, but as a general rule, I go easy on scents. I add no more than a drop or 2.

Mix the two salts together and use as the base. Measure two cups and scent as desired. Color as above if desired also. Glycerin will soften skin, but place a warning tag that reads "NOT FOR USE in jacuzzis". I don't know what it does to the jacuzzi jets, but everywhere I've read says not to use it in jacuzzis, and I'd rather you not ruin your tubs! Store salts in a zip lock bag for two weeks, shaking daily. After 2 week ripening period is finished, dispense into gift containers and decorate.

Variation 3: Mix together in large bowl and bag in appropriate gift container. Decorate as appropriate.
