I am sharing today a tutorial that your kiddos will love. We { Mimi and I } are showing you how to make Slime
in just four simple steps. Well, not just slime but awesome Glittered Slime!
Your kids are going to love you!!!!
How fun is this?
Let’s get with it!
MATERIALS
1 Elmer’s Glitter Glue
1 Cup Water
1 tsp. Borax
1 Tb Water
{ You can replace the Glitter Glue for regular white glue to make normal slime }
TUTORIAL
1
Mix 1 tsp. Borax and 1 Cup water together.
You can find the Borax at your local stores in the Laundry section.
Call me crazy but I love the box.
2
Have your little helper empty the Glitter Glue into a bowl.
Oh the anticipation!
3
Add 1 TB. Water to the glue and mix it together.
This will help the glue to become a little more flexible.
4
Then pour the Borax mixture inside of the bowl.
Let their little hands work the magic as they combine the glue and the mixture together.
Right away you will see how the Glitter Slime will start to form.
I love this part when you hear them say oooh and cool at the same time!
Isn’t it pretty?
Don’t leave the slime in the water mixture too long since it will make the slime too hard.
Finish mixing it in your hands.
It will look like this!
TIP: Don’t throw the extra Borax mixture yet.
If the slime gets too slimy you can put it back inside and it will harden some more.
We made the Glitter Slime in three colors.
At this point all that was left was to have fun…
Time to play!
To store it we used baby food jars.
And it was at this point that I thought
Wait a minute!
What about if we make some Halloween Glitter Slime Monsters with it.
So we did!
You can check out the tutorial here.
They should be scary but I am going to say that they are super cute!
Happy Tuesday!

Desiree! This is seriously out-of-this-world fantastic! Had to share on facebook and I’m pinning. So cute any kiddo would LOVE to get this – heck I wanna play with it 😉
<3 Christina at I Gotta Create!
Thank you Christina for sharing… you are awesome. Besos to you my friend!
Are you kidding us with how CUTE this is?! Aaah! LOVE! Can’t wait to make with my toddler- heading over to eighteen25 to see you there 🙂
XOXO
Oh my gosh the monsters are so much fun, your kiddos are going to love them!
So cute! What a fabulous and fun recipe for glitter slime. 🙂
I absolutely love this idea but I’m wondering if there is something else that can be used instead of Borax. I’m worried about some kids trying to eat it.
I’m throwing a “merry, not so scary, kiddo costume party” in October and I’m sooo going to make these for the kids!!! Thanks for the super awesome idea!!!
They are going to love you!
Curious, how many jars does one batch (one bottle of glue) fill up?
About 3 of the really small ones.
So cute! Thanks for the inspiration. Will definitely be doing these!!
As a teacher, I made slime for my students each Valentines instead of candy. But this GLiTTeRY slime is way better!! Love it!!! And the monsters as storage are just adorable!
I’m *officially* freaking out over how much I love this. Seriously, can’t handle it right now…..
