If you have never tried a dream pillow, you really need to give it a go!  These pillows are simple to make, need only a few ingredients, and last for up to a month.  If you use muslin draw-string bags to contain the herbs, you can empty out used herbs and refill with fresh ones as needed.  Check herbal and tea suppliers to purchase muslin bags inexpensively.  If you desire something more attractive, especially when giving dream pillows as a gift, just sew a small pouch from cloth, fill with herbs and sew closed.  I keep my dream pillow on my nightstand.  Before I go to bed I give the dream pillow a little squeeze, smell the herbs, then place it under my bed pillow.  My turning on my bed pillow during the night keeps my dream pillow releasing its fragrance.

The best containers for herbal baths are muslin draw-string tea bags, but you can also use a piece of cheesecloth secured with string or even an old handkerchief or cotton cloth that has been tied into a knot.  The important thing is to secure the herbs so that they don't get loose into your bath water and clog your drain.  Experiment with your own combinations of herbs and by all means try these!

Bath Salts are very easy to make and well worth the effort!  Make several batches at once and save time.  You can store your salts in zipper type plastic bags, mason jars, decorative containers or even in those draw-string muslin tea bags.  Mix up the Bath Salt Base ahead of time, then add your oils when you're ready.  You can color the Salts by adding a few drops of food coloring.  Just be sure to add liquids a drop or two at a time and mix thoroughly.  To use the Salts, toss them under the running bath water and stir with your hand to melt.  The recipes below make a half cup of salts - just enough for one bath.
