Who doesn't love a good candle? You use candles to scent your home or office, to unwind or even to take away smells of food and cigar or cigarette smoke. But have you thought of trying your hand at making your own candles? It's super easy and fun for the whole family. There are easy accessible kits at both your local department and craft stores, see this episode here , where I used a candle making kit from Walmart! With kits you can not control the type of wax you have but you can definitely get the wax you need and that I personally prefer from a craft section from the discount department stores or from the craft store online or in store. First, you need soy wax, eight ounce candle tins, candle wicks, color, fragrance, glue dots or a glue gun and glue sticks ( I prefer the latter )...all these items are very affordable. Once you have everything you need, you're going to measure out one pound which is about sixteen ounces. This will give you three 8 ounce candles. The math...
Wowwzers! It's been such a long time, let me know how I do with this blog post; I'm a little rusty.
When I first started making soap, I was mesmerized at the fact that you could take this and put it with that and it creates THIS; magnificent! I was astonished, amazed and eager to know and learn more. I started researching what other types of bath and body products were out there and one of the unique items I came across were bubble bars or solid bubble bath. And I thought, hmm who doesn't love a good bubble bath and the quest began.
I sought out free recipes and tutorials, researched other blogs, was gifted a paid recipe and although that information was great; it wasn't me. Through trial, error and so much wasted money, I came up with my very own recipe that I call Bubble Crumble. Bubble Crumble holds scent well, dries fast and floods your bath tub with not only bubbles but fun colors; you shouldn't have to give up color just because you don't have a bath bomb...it would be an utter crime! Plain water is for the mundane, don't you think?
In my journey to create the BEST recipe and make the most AMAZING bubble bars, solid bubble bath or bubble crumble, whatever you want to call it; I decided I couldn't and didn't want to keep this secret to myself. I, with the help of a very good friend have comprised a simplistic tutorial along with pictures, ingredients ( complete with clickable links ) and a YouTube video for reference for you to purchase and enjoy to your hearts content. Make as many Bubble Crumble as you want with this recipe, gift them, sell them; anything you want, once you buy it, it's yours! We just ask that you do us a favor and tag us in any content that involves a product made from our recipe; we want to enjoy your bubbly creations.
View the video below to follow along with the step by step tutorial and recipe once you purchase it and you can do that here. I'm so excited for you all to start creating!
