Shane's Bubble Recipe

• 4 teaspoons of guar gum
• 1/4 cup glycerine
• 1 gallon of HOT tap water
• 1 cup of Dawn Professional Manual Pot and Pan detergent
• 2 teaspoons of baking powder

Instructions:

1. Fill bucket with 1 gallon of the hottest tap water possible. (Mark your bucket at this level for future mixes so you can fill directly from the sink.)
2. Mix the guar gum and glycerine in a bowl until they form a slurry with no lumps
3. Stirl the guar gum / glycerine mixture into the hot water until it's fully dissolved
4. Whisk in the Dawn detergent
5. Swirl the mixture and then sprinkle in the baking powder, whisking until it's fully dissolved
6. Once all the baking powder on top has been mixed in, you're ready to make some awesome bubbles.

Fog-filled Bubbles

Smoke or fog-filled bubbles look amazing on this table and are really fun to make. You can use a fog machine or a nicotine-free vape to make the smoke. Nicotine-free vapes are around $15-20 for a one-time use disposable, or a little more for a rechargeable and refillable one. Or look for a fog machine that blows fog directly into the bubbles without having to spend any time in your lungs first.
