Program Description:

Ready for some good self care? Learn to use essential oils and other earth-friendly ingredients to create your own scented bath bomb. Bath bombs are fizzy balls to drop in your bathtub. They dissolve and fill the bath with great scent and color. Come treat yourself well at the library! If you like this program, there will be another later in the month, where we will learn to make our own body scrub.
