Bath Salts Apothecary Jar.

I wanted to show a close up of the bath salts container in my new bathroom, It is very simple to put together, a cute apothecary jar, bath salts, ribbon and luscious velvet strawberries. I made the bath salts myself with Epsom salts, food color and rose essential oil, just mix it up and put in jar, add ribbon bow and the berries. Below is a close up of the velvet berries, I make them from hand dyed velvet, add the seed beads for seeds, and several layers of ruffled seam binding for the calyx. I do so love the strawberries they add just the right touch to anything.

Below in this picture is the scoop, I have used a small tea cup and it works perfectly, could it be any cuter?

Well that was what I wanted to share, try doing it yourself I know you will come up with wonderful different ways to make it fun and beautiful. I would love to see what you do. Any questions just ask. Have a special day. TTFN
