Blissful Bath Bombs
Handcrafted bubbly bathtime fun!
Take crafting to the bathtub and create your own aromatic ablution ecstasy! Create a soaking symphony of colors, fragrances, soothing moisture and muscle-relaxing salts.
Bath bombs make bathtime fun for the whole family! Children rejoice as their bombs erupt into mini-volcanoes when dropped in their tub water. Adults love the moisturizing effect of the oils released by the bomb and the relaxing fragrance it emits. It is fun to create bath fizzies with the kids and they make unique gifts and party favors.
Take indulgence to a whole new level with a bath melt. Let the moisture seep into every pore, inhale the calming fragrances and enter bathtime nirvana! These fun bath candies spark your creativity as you design chocolates and bon-bons that dissolve in the tub.
In my workshop, you'll get lots of ideas and options to create a smorgasbord of bubbly bliss - by following easy instructions and detailed photos. And if you have any questions I'll be available to personally fill your brain with more fizzy fun tips and ideas!

About the Designer:
Alia Diez
A former TV producer, Alia Einstein-Diez started making bath and body crafts soon after her daughter was born. Having always been hypersensitive to chemicals and fragrances in commercial products (even so-called 'natural' body products), when her baby turned out to be equally sensitive she started making her own soaps, herbal oils, butters, bath bombs and much more. Once she started, she couldn't stop! At first she gave all of her extra all-natural bath creations to friends and family. Finally, she started her own business Gaia's Kiss. A crafting maniac and passionate about all-things-hand-made, Alia is always looking for ways to add more crafting creativity to the business - such as making soap sacks, hand-made soap dishes, shaving mugs, and putting herbs she grows in her garden into her products. Alia lives in Denver with her husband, daughter, son and shetland sheepdog.

I have had a lot of fun as a result of this workshop. I find the bath bombs easy to make and even taught my 7 yr old granddaughter how to do it. She made many and gave them as gifts for folks attending her aunt's baby shower.

Although this is a great introduction to bath bombs, many recipes are available online for free. The advantage of this course is that you can ask questions and get wonderful feedback. If you want to venture out of the norm this course will disappoint you as the basics are the only things covered here.

I can't wait to try to make these! I bought all the ingredients awhile ago but never got a chance to make them. But your instructions are so much better than the instructions that I got from a friend that I am definately going to make these!!! Thank you!
