Bath Bombs!

Cranberry fragrance bomb. Fragrance from Voyaguer Soap and Candle.  Very festive scent for the upcoming holidays! These are easy to do a bit messy and fun! 

Juicy Orange from Nuture's Soap.  Love love this citrus scent! For the mold a plastic wine glass. These popped out of that glass perfectly and they look like bells! Never mind the Christmas ball molds these are way easier and bigger! Simple basic recipe:  2 cups baking soda, 1 cup citric acid, teaspoon fragrance oil or essential oil, teaspoon gel colour or you could use food colours. 1 tsp oil I used sweet almond oil. You could use melted shea butter, cocoa butter or your choice. I also added irredescent glitter to the mix (optional) Witch hazel or water in a spray bottle. (Be careful with spritzing so you don't create the reaction) I used water. Mix all ingredients except the water and blend thouroughly. Spritz lightly so mixture clumps well in your hand and sticks together. What I did was double this recipe so when I spritzed I did a bit at a time just to moisten the bit I was getting into the wine glass. I scooped it in and pushed it with my fingers then added more to fill the goblet. When full I twisted the bottom with the palm of my hand to smooth out.  Then knock on the top of the glass with a spoon and turn it round tapping until you hear it pop and it let it fall into your hand. Have a cookie sheet ready lined with parchment paper and set your bombs there to dry. I topped them off with more glitter for extra glam. These turned hard quickly too! Love this recipe was so simple. Today I made 34 bombs these will be going to market for a Christmas show in a couple weeks. These are going for 7.50 each cdn. And I think a bomb would make such a good stocking stuffer don't you?! Thanks for stopping by the soap kitchen once again till next time. Bye for now  

I added some red and green mica to the cranberry bomb I wish I would have maybe not done that. Too late now.  I thougt it maybe festive, I'll leave that up to you to decide.
