Toilet Cleaning Bombs

I saw this on Facebook from a friend posting it - I'm posting this mostly so I can find the recipe again when I get the gear together to make it! I love that this is all natural and simple products, plus cheap! This may in time come to replace all the expensive chemical cleaners I currently use.

WHAT I USE: (for approx. 24 bombs)--1 1/3 cup Baking Soda amazing for all-natural cleaning AND deodorizing!--1/2 cup Citric Acid - (low-strength acid that exists naturally in fruits like lemons & oranges)- used in many kitchen & bathroom cleaners for its cleaning, whitening & deodorizing properties--30 drops Lavender Essential Oil***--30 drops Peppermint Essential Oil***--30 drops Lemon Essential Oil*** --Medical Mask

WHAT I DO:
Since I work with citric acid and baking soda, I always put medical mask first and then mix together soda and acid. After that I put oils in a spray bottle and spray little by little stirring the mixture at the same time in order to not let it fizz away. If the mixture isn't damp enough I add just A TINY BIT of water in my spray bottle and spray the mixture - but again, I try to prevent the acid from fizzing away, because bombs won't be exploding, if they're too moist.After that I put the mixture in silicone molds and let them dry for about 6 hours. And then I store the bombs in a container with a lid
