I have been baking and freezing already for some of the gift basket that I am making for gifts. I ran on to these recipes too. I think that they will go nicely for gifts for the ladies on our lists.
Gifts Gel Air Fresheners
Heat 1 cup of distilled water to boiling. Stir in 4 packages of unflavored gelatin (e.g., Knox) until dissolved. Remove the mixture from heat and stir in the other 1 cup water. Add 10-20 drops of essential oil or other concentrated fragrance. If desired, add food coloring to tint your gel. You may also wish to add a mold inhibitor, such as 1-2 T salt. Pour the gel into clean baby food jars or other small, decorative containers. The gel will set at room temperature, although you can place the air fresheners in the refrigerator for a quick set (and scented fridge). Decorate your jars as desired and enjoy! You can also layer to colors of gel just like you would a Jell-O desert.
Sugar Scrub
1 Cup Sugar, 1 tsp glycerin, 1 tsp sea salt, Food coloring, Essential Oil
