December 1st is the official kick off for holiday prep in the DIYShowOff home. Today I’m excited to be participating in an Essential Oils blog hop – with lots of DIY gift ideas from several of my ‘oily’ friends. Is there a ‘loves-to-cook’ or foodie friend on your holiday gift giving list? Give one or more of these a try: 

Essential Oils + Sea Salt Gift Set

*I only recommend Young Living brand essential oils labeled safe for dietary use for this recipe.

What I used: (includes some affiliate links)

• Young Living essential oils (I used Basil, Rosemary and Thyme)
• Organic spices or dried herbs (basil, rosemary and thyme)
• Organic sea salt
• glass bottles with cork lids (I found mine at Michael’s in the bridal/party favor aisle)
• small spoons 

Measurements will depend on the size of your containers and preference.

What I did:

Add 1-2 drops of essential oil to 2 tablespoons of sea salt in a dish and mix well. You may want to allow the mixture to dry for a couple of hours. 

Mix in 1 tablespoon of dried herbs or spice. 

Add to glass jar or bottle and secure with cork lid. 

Add a label and ribbon. I also added a small spoon. 

A perfect DIY gift for food lovers and cooks.
