About the class

Come join us for a magical night of making bath salts and teas for self-care. It’s the perfect time of year to make something to treat yourself or someone else! Learn about various herbs, flowers and essential oils to soothe the nervous system and body, then use your new knowledge to create a custom blended herbal tea and a personalized bath salt for someone special. Decorate each Mason jar lid with fabric and a bow, add a pretty label, and your items will be gift-ready. You’ll leave with an eight ounce mason jar of tea and an eight ounce jar of bath salt.

The Sonoma Community Center is committed to creating an accessible learning environment. If you require any special considerations(medical, physical, learning) please share them with Sean Baskin, Program Associate, by emailing him at sean@sonomacommunitycenter.org so that he can forward them to the relevant Program Director and Instructor.
