I followed the same steps as with the numbered ones:
The only difference was the size, which was 3 inches for the flor de lis.
I used a lemony green that matches the accents in the master bathroom:
I filled it up with homemade bath salts, following this recipe from the wonderful Maggie over at Smashed Peas and Carrots.
While I was setting the salts up in my bathroom I remembered a silver spoon I had picked up at a vintage store in Rhode Island. It had been sitting in a drawer of the china cabinet for years with no purpose. I gave it a quick polish and think it looks so happy now!
Happy and at home, hanging from some delightful lavender bath salts!
Update: I am currently training for a 5K and used some of these in a post-run bath last night... they were FABULOUS!!! Please make some for yourself, for your mom, for a friend... they'll love you!

How cute. I make a lot of sugar scrub for gifts and this would be so much cuter than the plastic containers I have used in the past.
Love them! They turned out so cute! I awarded you the Gorgeous Blog Award over on my blog. Night Owl Crafting
