Homemade Vapor Shower Disks






vicks
 This DYI is great for the Winter Season, however, now we are in Spring of 2013, but many still have the sniffles, or getting over those winter blues and this DYI Vapor Shower Disks is perfect to kick out any upper respiratory that is still lingering....


Plus this beats the cost of actually buying one from Vick's Vapor (very expensive)!!

You need:
-Baking soda
-Water
-Essential oils: eucalyptus, rosemary, and lavender.
-Muffin tin
-Muffin liners
Directions:
1) Add baking soda to a mixing bowl.
2) Slowly add water until you’ve made a thick paste. Updated to add: add just a little water a time. You’ll want the mix to feel like putty.
3) Add 15 drops of each essential oil.
4) Spoon in to a muffin tin, and let sit out for 12-18 hours. You can also bake these, but I just left them out overnight.
5) Pop these suckers out of the paper liner, plop it in your shower, and let the essential oils steam away your stuffy nose. Edited to add: put them anywhere on the floor of the shower; it doesn’t matter where!
