I love making stuff for the bath, even though I rarely use the stuff. I think I'd be more inclined to have long luxurious soaks if I had a nice, clawfoot tub. Instead, I have a very utilitarian tub with a very straight back, which doesn't lend itself to spending a lot of time in it.
That said, I still do very much enjoy making bath salts and bath fizzies for others. I haven't made much in terms of bath bombs because I didn't have the usual round mould for them, that is until this past Christmas when my sister gave me her set, along with the ingredients for the bath bombs.
I followed the instructions for making the bath bombs, which is sort of like this one, but rather than using LaBomb colourant, I figured it was a good way to clean up the mica that spilled. I think the bath bombs turned out very pretty.

And in case you're wondering "where did Monica get that adorable dish soap?", it was made during ceramics class once upon a time by my nephew. :)
Have a great week!
I love the claw foot bathtubs. My mom had one in her house (the house was 100 years old). Your bath bomb turned out awesome! I like the swirl of blue in there. What does it smell like? I'm like you, I love making bath products but rarely use them myself.
ReplyDeleteClaw foot tubs are so cool, your mom was very lucky to have one. I have to say, bath bombs are deceptively easy to make but they look so good! I used ginger peach FO from Crafter's Choice, I really like the smell of it.
DeleteWe are just more into the creative process than actually indulging, right?
It looks beautiful! Such a good idea to add those blue streaks. Ginger peach sounds absolutely great! I have bought sodium bicarbonate and citric acid, but I did not make bath bombs yet.... Looking at yours is very tempting!
