5 Things You Should Know BEFORE Making Slime
- mix the food coloring in with the glue
- wear gloves
- it will stain your carpet, your walls, etc (using a toothbrush and dish soap will get the sticky residue out of clothes) *snag my FREE homemade cleaners eBook to help with the cleaning process!
- it only stays fluffy for a short amount of time
- wipe out your containers with a paper towel or baby wipe…don’t wash the glue mixture down your sink!

Let’s Make It Together!
You Will Need:
1 tsp Borax
4oz. School Glue
1 tbs Corn Starch
1/2cup Shaving Cream
Water – start with 1/4 cup and add more if needed
Food Coloring (optional – it stays more fluffy if you leave out the food coloring)
Pour glue into a medium sized bowl
Add in shaving cream
Add water and Borax mixture (I let the Borax dissolve in the water before pouring it in the shaving cream mixture)
Add corn starch
Mix together – it will start off really wet and slimy
Add food coloring …but wear gloves!! Otherwise, your hands will end up like mine 🙁
Have fun playing around!
