Can you make your own bubble solution with dish washing soap?

Easily. Recipes all over the intrtnet. Most use dish washing liquid. Too much soap makes the bubles sticky.

Yes, just more for your money. Use a foaming soap dispenser for more control and less spillage. ;)

I've used Epsom salts & they work great. Be really easy on the soap or it'll overflow, but yes you can use soap.

I just use regular dish washing soap that has anti bacterial fighter in it. Something like Dawn or Palmolive. There is a ratio of soap to water with the soap being much less. If you use too much soap it will gum up the dispenser. Check on the internet for a good ratio and 'don't shake' it once mixed. It's better if you just flop it sideways a few times to mix it. Ours has worked well so far. Good luck !

I have been using a bit of dish soap, sponge and warm water. Being stainless steel, I figure that should work okay and have not seen any problems with it.

I have a 4 part recipe that is better than any dishsoap I've ever used: 1 tsp Bronner's Sal Suds, 1 tsp Arm&Hammer; washing soda, 1 tsp baking soda and 1/2 cup white vinegar poured in the bottom of the machine. Yeah it's extra trouble but it's safe, natural and dishes come out shiny and spotless!

Most definitely you can! You would only need to cut the blocks to the size you are comfortable using. Melt and pour would be needed if you wanted the soap to be molded, scented, and/or colored.

Yes, for the most part. As long as the dish detergent doesn't have any 'solids' in it, you are good to go. You will need to adjust the amount of soap depending on its viscosity.

I have not personally tried that as I don't have a dishwasher. It may create too many suds for that though.

I don't know, but seems worth a try. I think I will try that, sounds like great idea actually! Works great with soap.

Well, I am using hand soap, not dish soap. You can use pretty much any liquid or gel soap unless it has "beads" in it or something that would clog the pump.

I tried soap and had bubbles all over the place lol I do not know about bath salt as long as it does not bubble up it should be ok.

Absolutely, putit on high until it bubbles, then set it to one of the olwer settings. You an add salsa or any other ingredients you like. When done, empty left-overs, then let soak in hot, soapy water. Hope this helps

I make my own detergent using Borax, Baking Soda, Laundry Soda and washing soap. To do this you have to mix 2 tablespoons with hot water to liquefy this for my front load HE washing machine. So if you just use this I would think you could mix a measured amount with hot water and use it.

We have ours outside but bring it inside each night. And we use bubble solution. We tired homemade bubbles but they just don't work good in this machine.

The dishwasher powder works too... just put about 1/2 tsp into boiling water and soak for a few hours.... turns out perfect!!

Honestly I wouldn't think it would it's more intended to make GIANT bubbles. I would just order a big bottle of normal bubble solution. If not available on Amazon I am sure it would be at Walmart or Target.
