    bought a bath bomb press

    Lakes versus Mica, painting bombs

    Well, it did work using the 91% alcohol to paint my embeds with lake dyes. Much easier than dying a batch of embeds trying to like them up correctly and working fast enough to cut them. I think for I will make some mini beach balks for the palm trees. I will scent the final beachy bomb with a...
