It’s nice watching you be so confident in your bath bomb making. I can hear the confidence in your voice! ❤

[@CL-we8tn]

I'll second that. Good to see.

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

thanks so much you guys!! I appreciate that! Yes, I feel so much more confident than I did last year even. It's been a long struggle with these things and I'm so glad I didn't quite the 50 times I said I was going to!😂😂😂

[@CL-we8tn]

@@WalnutCreekBathBoutique I'm glad too, I love that you can now make this product with confidence. ❤️

thanks Andi! I appreciate that 😍 - hope you are doing well!

@@WalnutCreekBathBoutique oh no, never a worry. Since your recipe is very close to mine , I think you’ll be really happy with them. I haven’t changed my formula (except for .5% of a milk powder) in years and years. Haven’t needed to, whether it’s low or high humidity.

Love those bath bombs, they are gorgeous! That’s very similar to my press recipe…my 3d printed mold recipe has a lot more oil. I’m the 2 hour bath taker 😂

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

Thanks so much! Oh my, 2 hours LOL - I get so antsy in the bath I am only good for about 10 to 15 min. Maybe if I have one of those soaker tubs...I could go for longer 😂 a girl can dream LOL

[@birgitbrown6107]

Great looking bath bombs ❤ can I use micas for colorant or what would you recommend?

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

you sure can use micas - you just have to look to see if they are "lip safe" if they are you can use them sadly most blues and greens are not allowed in bath bombs.

[@cynthiameyer324]

Nice!! I like how Jerika Z wraps her BB, use cardstock paper, do not wrap along the orbit ring edge, wrap across the bomb itself, they looked lovely to me, just an FYI....good luck!!!

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

oh thank you for your tip! I have not seen her wrap like that, I may give it a try. The only thing is the cardstock would hide the pretty tops wouldn't it? You gave me something to think about ! 🤗💖

[@BubblesByHeather]

I love the look of white bombs with the botanicals, so classy looking! I am SO jealous that you got a press!! I promised myself one for my bday this fall if I make enough money this year haha. Thank you for mentioning me ❤ and I'm glad I could share info that was useful to someone 😊

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

Oh I hope you are able to get one! 🤞🤞🤞I have about 50 bath bombs right now from testing! I THINK I finally have it pretty well figured out. Def a learning curve to it. And thank you for the apple thing tip! I love it so much! And as for mentioning you, my inspired by you soap is up next Sat! 😃

I’m a large child… I can’t help but to play with the bath bomb. 😂

right!?!?!? 😂

[@harmonyshaddick3528]

thank you for an amazing video. can you please tell me where you got the round packaging for the bombs from?

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

hello! thanks for watching the video. I actually wrap my bath bombs with the National Shrink Wrap System. I use it for soaps, shampoo bars and shower steamers as well so that the cost of the system is a little more justifiable LOL I do plan on a video soon on how I wrap and label my soaps with it if you are interested is seeing it in action 💕

Use a silver sharpie to mark it

May I suggest you use a silver permanent market, since your mold is black, to mark the side the rose petals are on

What size are the clear baubles your using to put the bath bombs in after shaping?

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

I don't remember exactly - I think I bought them at wholesales supplies plus and crossed my fingers they were the right ones LOL.

[@lyndawest8612]

Hi Tammy. Great video. The bath bombs look great. Im curious about the colored powder that shows up on your work surface at about 6:41. Your recipe lists bath bomb powder what is this?

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

Hi Lynda, yes that is bath bomb powder. It is basically colored bath bomb mix. you can use your normal recipe or just put bs and citric acid only and color it. the thought is for it to shoot color into the bath water. I didn't have much luck with it this time though. It is totally optional though, if you are new to bath bombs I would not even try it LOL - they are hard enough!😂🤗

[@connielanier3247]

Where did you get the clear plastic half sphears you put your bath bombs in?

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

Hi Connie, I got those from Wholesales Supplies Plus. I think Bramble Berry may have them too. I tried just Christmas ornaments for a time but the plastic started to etch and the bombs would stick in them. these so are are working great.🤗

[@connielanier3247]

@@WalnutCreekBathBoutique Thank you. Found them.

[@BeechHillSoap]

Hi Tammy! Great job. I’m also working on making a good bath bomb this week, so your video was timely. Could I use goat milk powder instead of SLSA? If so will it also the same amount 24g?

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

H! You sure can. It will add a bit of foam and slow down fizz much like SLSA, but without the bubbles. I would use it at the same 24g Let me know how it goes for you!🤗

[@BeechHillSoap]

@@WalnutCreekBathBoutique thank you Tammy, I sure will!

[@Sherrie_Martin]

Why don’t you like the press? I was thinking about buying one.

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

Honestly I think I may try it again for my 3-D molds. the problem I was having with the arbor press is that I was putting way way too much pressure on it and it was cracking my molds and causing a lot of unmolding issues for me. I do now have The Bath Bomb Press (pneumatic) that I will now use most often (HUGE learning curve -- lots of tears LOL) but for special or holiday mold I think I will still use 3-D molds. I'm going to try the arbor press again soon and try not to put too much pressure on the mold to see if I can get it to work better.

[@maryward633]

Hi Tammy if I want to make a smaller batch will I just half your ingredients? Great bath bomb, well done ❤

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

Hi there! Absolutely! Just half the ingredients until you get the batch size you are comfortable with. Thanks so much for watching!💖

[@theresawellnitz3877]

How much did everything cost, the press, molds and compressor?

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

I think I spent right around 1400 for the press and the 3 molds. The molds are around 175 - 200 each. The compressor was around 100-140 if I remember correctly. Def a splurge and an investment. But I do think I will be really happy that I did it.

[@cherylhavelka2542]

where did you get the plastic bath bomb milky way molds?

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

I believe I bought them from wholesales supplies plus

[@marysmith6294]

Where do i buy bath bomb powder?

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

Hi Mary - I make my own bath bomb powder. It is basically your same bath bomb ratio with no other fillers (baking soda and citric acid only) and then color them with your dyes/lakes. Dyes are better for this if you want the water to be more colored. Hope that helps!

[@maknap59]
