Christmas Pudding Bath Bombs

 

Christmas Pudding Bath Bombs

Knitted Christmas Puddings are so cute! 

In previous years I have made them in a variety of sizes …….. and filled them with little Ferrero Rocher Chocolates, Tunnock’s Teacakes and Chocolate Oranges ….. as small fun gifts for family and friends.

 

This year I made them again, and filled each with a bath bomb. I love how they look!
