Day 201 / Giant Bubbles!!!

In an urge to get my creative thing done early enough to get to bed on time yesterday I last minute decided to make this giant bubble blower based on this Instructable.  Unfortunately, I decided to do it around dusk and I couldn’t get any bubbles out of it.  I was using this big bottle of Miracle Bubble that we had and it wasn’t working at all.

 

I didn’t want to post something about a bubble blower without some actual bubbles as evidence. So this morning I decided to extend my creative thing a bit and make some homemade bubble mix.  There are many recommendations for bubble mix recipes but I came across this site in the comments section of the instructable.  It’s a great site that compiles all the different bubble mixes.  I opted for the one second from the bottom, Big Bubble Magic’s Basic Secret Formula.

 

It is as follows:  1-part Ultra Joy Dish Soap, 8-parts Distilled Water, 1/4-parts Glycerin

 

I ended up using sixteen cups of distilled water, two cups of ultra Joy and one half cup of Glycerin.  I found the Glycerin at CVS finally.  It was the hardest ingredient to find.

 

Well, the mix worked like a beauty.  I had grandma and grandpa create them for June as I snapped some pictures.  It was awesome!

 
 
 
 

Oh yeah, if you haven’t seen this video below yet please watch.  It’s a personal goal of mine to recreate this video with some of my own friends
