I've made toilet bombs for years. Like them a lot ! I started out putting the mixture in molds....& while that is fun & looks kinda cool, it also means the mixture has to be just right so it will hold the shape of the mold. That can be just a little bit tricky sometimes. So ! To simplify things, I just mix all the dry ingredients & some essential oil....make it smell good ! in a container w/a lid & have a container w/a scoop inside in both bathrooms. All I have to do is scoop some mixture, empty the scoop into the toilet & ta da ! Easy peasy. I've also used kitty treat containers that have a lid w/a little flip opening....I hold onto the lid to make sure it doesn't pop off, then just shake a little mixture into the toilet.

Carol Jean She doesn’t put enough citric acid in her recipe, you can use Lemon juice instead of citric acid which is cheaper. For citric acid use a cup to cup and a half with 1 cup of baking soda. Don’t use water mix in a a tablespoon to 2 tablespoons of dish soap along with a tablespoon of oxy clean. Use a cup of lemon juice if you don’t want citric acid . About 20-30 drops of any essential oils each. Mix well and put in ice cube trays. You can lay overnight or put in freezer for 3-4 hrs if it isn’t foamy enough add a little more juice

@@ouroilyhouse Laura, my cousin Barbara and I love you! We watched your video yesterday and made 8 batches of these toilet bombs. We had a ball! However, our bombs are sinking and not fizzing either!😪 If we crush them they work great but it defeats the purpose of an easy clean. So we would really like to figure out why it didn't work. I'm assuming the bombs need to be porous and light weight. Do you think we should have used more or less soap? Maybe we shouldn't have packed the molds so much?

Why does it sound like you're yelling? I have the volume turned all the way down & it still sounds like you're yelling at people as though they're at the other end of the house. You can just talk normally & people will be able to hear you just fine. Most microphones these days are able to pick up the smallest sounds. Making the bombs now, but had to put the captions on to finish the recipe
@ashleynjestin3 жыл бұрын
first off, dont add your citric acid until after you've thoroughly mixed your liquids into your baking soda... If you mix the citric acid and baking soda, then add liquid it acitvates the "fizzy sound" and that means your bomb is half ruined.. I dont know where you learned to make bath bombs by mixing the liquids that way but your totally wrong.. sorry to burst your bubble but your wrong, and teaching this is also wrong.
