I wanted to try the DIY Bath Steamers from the Hallmark Channel Home and Family . I tried and failed.😏 But I had fun trying and will try again. You live and learn by failing, right?? Here's the materials list and directions if you'd like to take a stab at making these cute bath steamers: MATERIALS 2 cups baking soda 1 cup citric acid 1 cup cornstarch 3-5 tbsp water Essential oils - whatever you like Silicone baking/soap molds For a cold/flu symptoms - 80 drops of eucalyptus oi l and 40 drops of peppermint oil For a soothing shower - 80 drops of lavendar oil & 40 drops of geranium oil INSTRUCTIONS Place the baking soda, citric acid, and cornstarch in a large bowl. Use a pastry cutter or large whisk to remove lumps and mix well. Add the water SLOWLY, 1 tbsp at a time. You have to be very careful because if you add too much water too soon, the whole thing will fizz up. Just be patient and keep testing by grabbing a handful of the mixture and squeezing it...
