How to Make Glitter Slime:

In the glass mixing bowl, combine the clear glue and water. Mixing well.

Add the glitter, and you can add more or less depending on how you want the slime to look.

Stir.

After the first three ingredients are well combined, slowly begin adding the liquid starch. Add about a teaspoon, stir, and repeat. You probably will not use the entire 1/4 cup of liquid starch.

Once the mixture starts to thicken, you can begin mixing with your hands.

Continue adding the liquid starch until the slime reaches the correct consistency. The slime should be gooey, but not stick to your hands.

Store the slime in an air-tight container.

If the slime starts breaking apart and not being as ooey gooey, you can add a bit of lotion or baby oil to soften it back up.

According to my daughters, the louder and “poppier” it is the better. 😂
