Giant Bubbles Bubble Stuff
1/2 cup Dawn® or Joy® liquid dishwashing detergent
4 1/2 cups water
3 to 4 tablespoons glycerin (purchase at a drug
store--it may be behind the counter)
In a large plastic bowl mix all ingredients gently so that foam doesn't form on top of the water. Skim off any foam
that appears because it interferes with bubble making. Knot yarn, string, or twine into loops of different
sizes, up to 30 inches in circumference. The larger the loop, the larger the bubble.
You can also glue or tape bias tape (get at a fabric
store) to a large embroidery hoop.
Let string loops soak for a
minute in bubble mix. Using both hands, grasp the loop at two equally distant points and lift it gently out of the water with both
sides of the string drawn taut. Open the strings about 1/2 inch apart, keeping the string taut. Lift this
string form into the air, and a giant bubble will appear. Label the bubble mix and store it tightly sealed.
This recipe can be doubled or divided, as needed.
Pretty Bubbles Bubble Stuff
1/3 cup dish soap or baby shampoo
1 1/4 cups water
2 teaspoons sugar
1 drop food color
Put into a small plastic bottle with a wide mouth. Be sure to label it!
