Supplies:

- Two objects to hold the container
Step 1: Cell Phone
- Search for “colorful wallpaper” images

Step 2:
- Get a clear glass container or bowl
- Place the glass container on two steady objects
- Add water to the container so that it 1/4 the way full
- Place the screen under the water
- Put in a couple drops of oil or soap
- Do NOT combine the two. You will need to do each alone
- Mix it around with a wisk or fork to create more bubbles
Step 3:
- Zoom in close with the camera
- Take photo
- If you don’t like the way the circles look you can mix them up again
