It’s no secret around here that I love dandelions. The yellow flower (not a weed) is a huge part of this blog. These dandelion lotion bars are easy to make and the perfect recipe for using all those dandelions growing in the yard.

Dandelion lotion bars are the perfect way to celebrate spring and summer!
