When the weather is warm it's a great time to make bubbles, I mean BIG bubbles. This is a pretty simple project that will provide hours of fun and really impress your friends.
     First we need to get the materials together.
  • 1 Wire Coat Hanger
  • Some scrap cloth like an old T-shirt or some thin cotton.
  • Some tape, duck tape works really good but most any waterproof tape will do.
  • A large shallow pan either round or square.
Bend the coat hanger to fit into the pan.

Wrap the coat hanger with the cloth. Tape it at the beginning and end with the tape.

Mix the following ingredients to make the bubble solution. Believe me this is a pretty strange mix but it works really good. You can try different things but we know that this works.
  • 1/2 Cup Dawn Dish Soap. Others will work but this works best.
  • 5 Tablespoons Glycerin
  • 4 Tablespoons Salad Oil
  • 2 Tablespoons Vodka. I have no idea what this does but seems to help.
  • 5 Cups Water

Pour this mixture into your pan, dip your wand into it and wave it in the air. You should get lots of big bubbles that last a long time.
