Bath bags make a scented gift that is good not only for the bath but also as a sachet or aromatherapy item. Need a gift for those at work, or even a party favor for a special event or wedding this is a perfect recipe. This recipe is very large making 1,100 -- 1/2 cup bath bags (or about 550 cups of bath bag blend.) You can make half or 1/4 of the recipe instead if your need is not this large.

- 25 pounds (300 cups) lavender
- 6 pounds (96 cups) lemon verbena
- 7 pounds (84 cups) chamomile
- 2 pounds (32 cups) valerian root
- 2 pounds (24 cups) marjoram
- 1 pound (16 cups) linden blossoms
Mix all ingredients together adding valerian a bit at a time to get it mixed in thoroughly.
Measure 1/2 cup into cotton muslin bags and attach a label with use instructions.
To Use:You can either toss the bag into the water or hang it from the bath spout under the running water. Allow the bag to soak for several minutes before adding cold water to adjust to your preferred temperature. Then, get in and enjoy! It really is that simple.
