LH 35: Last Minute Homemade Fragrant Gifts

Welcome to Episode #35 of the Living Homegrown Podcast!

We all get busy this time of year. So it’s helpful to have a few gifts to have on hand for emergencies.

Maybe you need a last minute gift for a neighbor, a teacher or the host of an upcoming holiday party. Well, I’ve got you covered.

This episode is about making two different last minute gifts:

• Natural Home Fragrance Kits
• Bath Salts.

You also learn:

• The differences between fragrance oils and essential oils
• My safety trick with marbles
• Why you should save the pine needles off your Christmas tree
• Why it is a win-win if you don’t end up giving these gifts away
