Keep in mind, water temperature should not exceed F, extremely high temperatures can greatly shorten life of cloth diapers. Notes: use 3 tbsp in for prewash and 6 tbsp in for main wash. Now, I have follow the recipe, but after I have left the bubbles a new batch over night, when opened it smelled like rotten eggs mixed with blue dawn. I have no idea why that would happen. This is brilliant. I live in the UK and have just made this with my two children. I used fairy washing up liquid however any thick washing up liquid will do not the cheap stuff.
Its go to be thick. The day was sunny, hot and windy and it worked very well. I did so much research and experimentation last year and this recipe was almost perfect…but I found that it was much more effective to first dissolve the cornstarch in 3 cups water and cook over low heat stirring constantly until it becomes this thick gluttonous soup.
Remove from heat and stir in other 3 cups cold water and other ingredients stirring constantly to avoid clumps. The soap is added LAST to avoid foaming when stirring. Had lots of fun and am doing it again this year for the birthday party of my 8 year old.
Thank you for your recipe and photos. I have got to try this! My 2 little ones would also love these bubbles…Especially now when they are quarantine and unable to go out…. Oh wao…what a coincedence in name.. I am Lisa carrier running GreenMetropolis for sustainable living.
Have made this twice with my kids and it works out great. We used green Fairy Platinum, although I expect regular Fairy would work just as well. I have read that Fairy green works best and perhaps lemon should be avoided. I ended up pouring our leftover mixture into a 2l milk jug and have used it a few times since we mixed it up 3 weeks ago so it keeps well. I laughed out loud at your wonderful pun. Sorry to hear that, James. As you can see by the size of our bubbles, and by many of the comments on the post, the recipe does work well.
Weather does play a very big factor though. Humid, damp, overcast days are best! Also, try not to stir up a lot of froth when using the mixture. That will have a negative affect on it as well. How much is the total of this? Because this sound like so much fun for alaska! I would like to do this with my sister, but do you think it would be to cold? How much would all of the ingredients cost?
I believe there are significant differences in our grocery prices due to the vast differences in our locations. The most expensive part of the recipe would likely be the dish detergent. Humid, damp, overcast days with little wind are best.
Let me know if you give it a try! Will different kind of dishwashing liquid and potato starch work as well? Not living in US, so Dawn and corn starch are quite problematic. A thick dishwashing liquid like fairy liquid or Palmolive should work instead of Dawn though. I followed the recipe to a T! But they keep popping! Any suggestions? The recipe should work but the weather plays a huge factor, Em.
Damp, overcast days with no wind are best. They were forming really well but they would hardly ever come off the wand and float away they just popped before they closed into a bubble. Any ideas? Be sure to use your bubbles on a calm, humid day.
Early morning is best before the sun gets too hot. Overcast days with high humidity are best. Let your mixture sit for at least an hour after making it. You can let it sit overnight as well, but it definitely does have to sit. Hello, I live in Arizona and tried your bubble solution.
The bubbles did indeed pop all too quickly as you stated, and unfortunately I had to resort back to store bought bubbles. Do you have any solutions or suggestions for your mix? Are there any alternative bubble solutions that you might suggest that are better suited for dry warmer climates?
So excited to try this. Made these yesterday for a birthday party today! Awesome recipe!! Thank you for all the tips. We were starting to be discouraged when the bubbles kept popping at first. Even the older kids AND the parents got involved with the fun.
It was great! Been making my own giant bubble mix on and off for 30 years. Simple original Dawn, distilled water and Glycerin works best. The fewer impurities, fragrances, extra ingredients the better. I could see Baking Soda if you used tap water and needed to soften the water but Baking Soda is designed to leaven bread not increase surface tension of a liquid.
That property serves no purpose in a bubble. Glycerin is sold at Walmart for less than 4 bucks. I usually just make my want out of a coat hanger. Take a cheap pair of round woven cotton shoelaces or similar. Cut the eyelets off and thread the coat hangar through the middle of the shoelace.
A bubble mixture that is perfect one day can be useless the next day. Humidity levels make a big difference in bubble formation.
The soap to water ratio. Ber patient. Hi , love to try this, where did ou get the bubble wands or stick to make the bubble with one you made the mixture?
Five months ago I came across it and decided to have a try making some big bubbles. My Kids loved it and I have since started a local business so that others in our community can experience the joy! Hi, I was wondering how long the bubble solution is good for? Do I have to use it all up in the same day? These are awesome! Was babysitting and trying to find something new and fun, and found this. The kids loved it and the bubbles worked great. And they want me to leave the recipe for their mom so they can do it every day after school.
I took the photos myself, Ariadne, so yes, it does! Weather plays a key role in the success of the bubbles. You want to do this on a day on a humid day. Hi, I tried this recipe and found our tap water was too hard for proper bubble formation. The water where we live is very high in minerals. I found we had to use distilled water.
Has anyone else had difficulty with this recipe using tap water? If so, it may be the mineral content in your area. We found switching to distilled water made a big difference. Thank you for sharing this bubble recipe. Hello, the last homemade recipe I tried made pretty good giant bubbles, but only 1 small bubble at a time! Does this recipe work for small bubbles, too?
Made great bubbles. Now to figure out what to do in place of baking powder…. I have a small bottle of shampoo that contains glycerine will that work instead?
Thanks, Andreea. Let me know if you give it a try. We did it tonight and it worked very well. Just be careful around dogs that love popping bubbles! Late to the party i know, but here we go. HE High Efficiency Machines require low sudsing detergents. This is because more suds can interfere with the tumbling action of the machine.
HE machines rely on agitation — clothes tumbling and rubbing against one another — to clean. It is because HE machines were designed around the agitation of fabrics that they also do not use as much water to clean.
Remember the other side of the soap molecule — the side that hates water and loves dirt? That part works when the soap is in the water attracting to dirt on your clothes, holding onto the dirt and rinsing out. Use this popup to embed a mailing list sign up form.
