Touch Of The Orient

Combine everything except the oils in about a 2 quart jar with a lid. Mix the ingredients together. Drop in the oils one drop at a time and stir. Put the lid on the jar and shake gently. Let the mixture cure for about 4-6 weeks in a cool, dark place, shaking occasionally.

To add color to this blend, add some colorful flowers with oriental hues such as dried lilies.
