  • Add drops of food coloring and fragrance oil. I started with 6 drops of red and 4 drops of purple and 10 drops of fragrance oil. Get in there with your hands (rubber gloves will keep your hands from getting the food coloring on your skin). Mix, adding more food coloring as needed until you get to your desired color. (Note: when you add the coconut oil the color will darken some.)

  • Add more candy sprinkles to the top of your bath bombs. Press firmly so the candies are embedded in the bath bombs. If you are worried about the candies sticking on top you can pour a bit of coconut oil on top and press down with a spoon to seal them in.
