How d'you make bubble mixture?

[shinyshilling]

So, got the bubble machine but the mixture is a fiver a pot! Is it really only washing up liquid? How do you make bubble mixture?

[Turbomouth]

Yep, just plain old washing up liquid and water. More washing up liquid the better the bubbles. Only don't do what I did and add food colouring to the mixture, it's not a good idea

[BennyAndJoon]

I have had success with straight washing up liquid.

washing up liquid/ water mix. might want to make it not too runny if it's the ELC one. That bubble mix is quite a "firm" mixture.

you can add a bit of glycerin to the mix for more solid bubbles but nothing beats a bit of dishwashing liquid
