How to make your own bath bombs - with PHOTO Valeria Willmers

Everyone loves baths. Bath bombs-those delightful chunks of good-smelling stuff that explode into colorful fizz in your bathtub-are therefore an awesome gift on any occasion. But they can get a little pricy. If you buy ingredients in bulk and make a mess of bath bombs yourself, you can get a lot more bang for your buck. Plus, you can customize color, scent, and shape to perfectly suit the holiday-or the lucky bath bomb recipient. And no one will know if you save a couple dozen for yourself.
