Valentines Day Slime

Available Anytime

Gather your supplies and set out your confetti, sequins, and glitter! Make a buffet of fun mix-ins! Usually we mix in these things as we go along, but this time we set it up to do at the end instead. Grab some plastic containers and friends and make slime for everyone to take home. YOU WILL NEED: Clear Washable PVA School Glue {3 bottles, one for each color} 1.5 Ounce Bottles of Glitter Glue {this is optional and the slime can be made without it, but we love it!} Water Liquid Starch Food Coloring Glitter Sequins Heart Confetti HOW TO MAKE VALENTINES DAY SLIME STEP 1. Empty a small {around 1.5 ounce} bottle of cheap glitter glue into a 1/2 cup measure. Fill the remaining space in the measuring cup with the clear glue for a total of a 1/2 cup of glue. If you don’t have the glitter glue, just use a full 1/2 cup of clear glue. Empty into a bowl. STEP 2. Add 1/2 cup of water to the glue and mix well. STEP 3. Color with food coloring for a deep shade of red, purple, or pink. You can add more glitter now if you want too. STEP 4. Measure and add 1/2 cup of liquid starch to your mixture and stir. The slime will begin to form immediately. Once you have mixed as much as you can, remove your slime and knead until smooth. STEP 5. Set your slime on trays and toss confetti, glitter, and sequins all over it! Have fun mixing it all up and playing! Make several batches and swirl them all together. Super stretchy and super fun! Once you learn how to make Valentines Day slime, you won’t be able to stop. It’s easy to make homemade slime, and even easier to dress it up with fun holiday and seasonal themes.
