Great gift idea!
My house smells dreamy as I dry the rose petals for the Rose Petal Milk Bath! Thanks for the recipe. Is there a shelf life for this? I’d like to use the gifts for a Girls’ party in about a month.

Hi Laurie! Our favorite thing about spa crafts is that making them smells like a spa day! We never really noticed what the shelf life is for this project, but it should still smell wonderful if kept in a closed container! Cheers, Jennifer & Kitty
Hi
I accidentally purchased full cream dried milk will that make a difference?
Wow, that sounds creamy and wonderful! It seems like it would only make it better. Let us know how it turns out!
