June 28, 2018

You could use your DIY skills to craft your own custom bath bombs, but why stop there? Why not create a bath bomb for your pool?

Are you tired of working double shifts at the plant? Are you searching for a little rest and relaxation? Do you like bathing in colorful water? Then let me introduce you to the bath bomb. Featuring a range of ingredients from essential oils and effervescent scents to colorful dyes and, perhaps, even a surprise toy inside, bath bombs are quickly becoming the go-to for the overworked and the young at heart. You could use your DIY skills to craft your own custom bath bombs, but why stop there? Why not create a bath bomb for your pool? The team from Vat19 did just that, constructing a 2,000-lb. bath bomb using corn starch, citric acid, baking soda, black dye, and a very large fiberglass mold.
