3 cups water
Food coloring (optional) Round bubble blower made of thin wire (6-8 inches in diameter)
Mix all ingredient together. May add food coloring for colored
bubbles. To make bubble blower, bend a wire clothes hanger into a
circle. To form the handle, twist the hook opposite the circle. Wrap
the handle with electrical tape or yarn. For bigger bubbles, wrap the
circle with cotton twine. This will help absorb more soap mixture.
The rounder the circle, the better it works. Florist wire can be used to make smaller wands with different shapes.
