Let’s Swap Some Bath Bombs!

Filed Under: Bath Fizzies

Who’s ready for a swap? We had a great suggestion on our Facebook page to try swapping bath bombs. This is our first bath bomb swap that we’ve ever done and we’re super pumped about it! If you’re interested (and I hope many of you are) check out the details below.

Bath Bomb Swap Details!

Who can participate? Anyone! You do not have to be a professional soapmaker or vastly experienced. Just do the best you can. International soapmakers are welcome, too. The shipping charges will be a little more than for the domestic swappers, but we are happy to ship swap boxes anywhere. In the past we’ve had participants from France, Austria, and more!
  • You send us an email telling us what Bramble Berry fragrance you are using.
  • You make 12 Bath Bombs and label them with the ingredients you used and your name, your company name or soaping alias. Ideally we’re looking for a 4 oz bath bomb. If you’re bath bombs are not that big, just include an extra bath bomb in your recipe.
  • You send the bath bombs to Bramble Berry ensuring that it is received by Monday, March 26th.
    • Ship to: Bramble Berry Inc.
    • C/O Bath Bomb Swap
    • 2138 Humboldt Street
    • Bellingham, WA 98225
  • Purchase the Bath Bomb Swap item on the Bramble Berry website and choose what shipping method you would like. (USPS Flat Rate Box will be $13.15 but FedEx or Priority Mail may be less expensive depending on where you’re located).
  • Sit back and wait for your exciting box of goodies! We will get the swap boxes sent out by Friday, March 30th.
If you have never made bath bombs before, don’t worry, you can still participate. Check out this video on Soap Queen TV and learn how to make bath bombs.

  1. Hi I would like to participate in the up coming Soap Swap in May 2013.

    My 2 fragrance I am using is Lilac Cybilla, and Lily of the Valley Cybilla.

    My business name is Design Creations by JTK.

    Thank You

  2. Hi! I can’t buy witch hazel from Bramble Berry, because I live in Hungary! 🙁 🙂
    Which can be used instead of this product?
    Thanks, Gabi

  3. are there any packages that you offer for bath fizzies or even lip gloss making? to give to someone for a gift (an all in one kind of package, or DIY package)?

    • The deadline for this swap was March 30th, but don’t worry, we plan on doing another swap in the near future.

      Keep your eyes on the blog and we will announce when there is another so you can participate!

  5. 🙁 i hate that i missed the deadline for the swap, but i will definitely be looking out for the next one…does the fragrance oil have to be from brambleberry.com and how do we know which ones are already being used by the other swappers?

  6. I’m hopping that there is another one of these planned, as I missed the deadline for this one.

    • We are positively wanting to do another Bath Bomb Swap in the future! We loved receiving and smelling the beautiful Bath Bombs that were sent our way! Keep watching our blog for the next one!

  7. Make sure to label the ingredients you used and your name, your company name or soaping alias. Just package them up safely so they arrive in one piece =)

  9. Hello Everyone!!

    Ashton my 8 year old will be joining you in this swap I am so excited for him he made his own 6 oz bath bombs with his two favorite scents. Thank You to Bramble Berry for putting on this great swap.

  14. This will be my first attempt at bath bombs. I have apricot lab color and non-bleeding red. I can’t tell if they might work for bath bombs.

    • Apricot Labcolor is water soluble so it’s not a great idea for bath bombs. Non bleeding red would technically work but it likes to stick to oil rings around the tub.

      Have you watched the SoapQueen.TV episode on making bath fizzies? http://youtu.be/jgODHmkSTqQ I hope it helps =)

    • Yes. You can definitely send in bigger bath bombs! But you’ll most likely be receiving smaller bath bombs in your return package…unless we have more participants with giant bath bombs =)

  19. I’d love to do this, but my bath bombs I make for me and friends are half spheres, so would I’d almost be ashamed to send them. XP I have fibromyalgia, and I just can’t get my hands to join the two halves for the life of me. Would mine be worthy to send? They’re about 2oz, if that helps to know.

    • Hi Becka, I have fibromyalgia as well! Hang in there with the bath bombs!!!!! Mine are half spheres as well. Impossible to try and join the halves. I find that just pressing them into a pretty mold looks just as great! Who says they have to be round anyways 🙂 I bet yours look fantastic and are more than worthy to send!! I usually use about a 3-4oz mold to compensate for the missing half. Another idea would be using frosting to join them together.
      -Jennifer Pickering

    • Definitely worth sending. Just include 2 bath bombs in your swap. So you’ll be making 24 total =)

      Courtney from Bramble Berry

  20. What size (weight) of bath bomb are you thinking? I’m guessing more than 12 participants so you’ll just send a random set back?

    • 4 ounces is the standard weight. Yes, you’ll get a random assortment of bath bombs in the mail. So fun!

      Courtney from Bramble Berry

  22. How exciting! I have heard of these but have never tried them. They sound super fun. 🙂
    Do we make 12 of the same kind of bath bombs or 12 different types?
