  For $\kappa>0$ and $\rho>-2$, we construct a $\sigma$-finite measure, called
a rooted SLE$_\kappa(\rho)$ bubble measure, on the space of curves in the upper
half plane $\mathbb H$ started and ended at the same boundary point, which
satisfies some SLE$_\kappa(\rho)$-related domain Markov property, and is the
weak limit of SLE$_\kappa(\rho)$ curves in $\mathbb H$ with the two endpoints
both tending to the root. For $\kappa\in(0,8)$ and $\rho\in
((-2)\vee(\frac\kappa 2-4),\frac\kappa 2-2)$, we derive decomposition theorems
for the rooted SLE$_\kappa(\rho)$ bubble with respect to the Minkowski content
measure of the intersection of the rooted SLE$_\kappa(\rho)$ bubble with
$\mathbb R$, and construct unrooted SLE$_\kappa(\rho)$ bubble measures.
