Makes You Want to Take a Bath

I received this book for my birthday recently, and I loved reading it. After I was done, I totally wanted to take a warm, relaxing bath! I love the recipes, both for bath indulgences and also for drinks to sip. I can't wait to try making them. I loved the lavender tub wreath idea. This book would be great for displaying in a bathroom. I'd recommend reading it for anyone who loves taking baths!

The Bathing Encyclopedia

This book is like an encyclopedia about bathing. It describes bathing across time and cultures. It also includes recipes for drinks and bathing luxuries.

Simplicity at its Finest!

Many pictures...almost every other page portrays inticing photography that makes you dream about your next visit to the spa. A great coffee-table book, especially in the waiting room of a spa! This book could be useful in decorating as well. The writing covers some history on bathing in different cultures...very interesting!
