Make a bath soak

Combine the Epsom salts and the scented oils together in a bowl. We used rose and lavender oils, but you can create your own aromatherapy blend using oils of your choice.

To dry your fresh rose petals, place on absorbent towel and microwave on high for about a minute − this may vary between microwaves and petal sizes. Remove from the microwave and allow the steam to disperse. Mix dried petals and oats together.

Cut muslin into 4 squares. Spoon equal amounts of salt and petal mixtures among each square. We used different coloured petals for a pretty effect.

Tie each square with string. Fill your tub, hang a bath tea bag from the tap and allow it to infuse. Light some candles and soak in the calming atmosphere.
