RE: Geeking Out on Labels: Design Fun!

Ah, aren't you cute. These are sweet!! Now you have to post a recipe for the vapor rub!!! Go on you!!!

I think the label making appeals to the OCD in me. Yep, might be hyperbolic, but I feel better with things more organised - especially when I'm stressed. Plus, creating these decreased my stress, so I know what you mean about the aaaah that comes from organising cupboards! I got a box for my essential oils the other day and ooooh didn't that satisfy!!!

Sort:  

This was actually my first time making some. I think I might make it a bit stronger next time, but it takes a long time to use up a jar. :) Full of EOs you apparently can't use with young kids though, and I wonder about my childhood memories of mom using Vick's vapo rub on me! Lol
No, I totally understand the organization happy. So satisfying!

Vicks was the best, rubbed on your chest, a loving kindness memory!!!

Right? I'm just wondering what ingredients were safe in that vs. homemade, or maybe people just didn't realize that you shouldn't use menthol on young kids back in the 80s, lol.

Ah, so THATS the cause of all thats wrong with me!!! Te he. What recipe did you use for your vapor rub? You have me intrigued now!!

Uhhhhh ...I'd honestly have to dig around to find it, but I think it was peppermint, eucalyptus, and ...rosemary, maybe? It was several months ago that I made it and the first time, so it's not embedded in my brain, but my first foray into making my own. XD I think the base was just olive oil and beeswax.
