Comic Slime Recipe

Looking to get a little slimy with your next art project? Then we have just the right project for you: Cosmic Slime Art & Craft. In less than ten minutes and 4 ingredients later, you can be playing with your own Cosmic Slime. 

What you need:

  • 1 bottle of Elmer’s Clear School Glue
  • 1/2 -3/4 cup Sta-Flo Liquid Starch
  • Liquid watercolors
  • Dust Glitter (Fine Glitter)

Now that you have your ingredients, let’s get started. You will need a mixing bowl and your hands! Pour your 5 oz. Elmer’s clear glue, followed by a slow flow of your Sta-Flo Liquid and start to stir with your finger. As your slime gets thicker you will need to knead it like bread using both of your hands. Add in your liquid color (add until you get your desired color) and then sprinkle on your dust glitter. TA-DA- you have made a glittery comic slime.

About the Author: Yvonne Wonder

As the founder and managing director of Destination Sitters, LLC, a national hotel and event babysitting service, and the mother of two children, I strongly believe that family comes first. I personally needed babysitting when I moved to San Diego 14 years ago. Like most parents, I assumed there were standards for temporary babysitting; in reality, there are no state standards or licensing requirements for temporary babysitting. The idea for Destination Sitters was born! I wanted to Give Parents Peace of Mind® when traveling with their children, so I created strict screening requirements for the sitters we refer. There is nothing like the peace of mind that comes from getting great professional help to care for your children, especially when traveling away from home. I and my partners, along with our office staff, have that one goal in mind with everything we do. Through the years of working with children, I have been inspired to write three books, and this blog for parents’ and children’s wellbeing. I believe the best way to teach a child is leading by example, with love, honesty, integrity, compassion, perseverance, and personal responsibility. Learning these values and teaching children that all women and men are equal will encourage them to dream big to be anything they want to be! An entrepreneur for over 35 years, I previously spent years running a construction and design company with two offices in California and built million-dollar estates and remodeled existing ones. For three and half years, I was one of the primary designers on HGTV’s Curb Appeal. I have also been published in books, magazines and newspapers, and have been a featured designer in multiple showcase houses.
