• Ready In: 15mins
• Ingredients: 5
• Yields: 1 batch of slime

ingredients

• 1⁄2 cup white glue
• 6 tablespoons water
• food coloring
• 1 -4 teaspoon borax
• 1 -4 tablespoon water

directions

1. Mix the glue, 6 tablespoons water and food coloring until it is dissolved.
2. In a separate bowl, dissolve 1 teaspoon borax into 1 tablespoon water.
3. Add to the glue solution.
4. You will get a very thick clump of slime when the two mix.
5. Pull the clump of slime out of the glue mixture and put it in a separate bowl.
6. Mix another batch of the borax solution and add to the remaining glue mixture.
7. Repeat until all the glue mixture is used (about 3-4 times).
8. With clean hands, knead the slime to mix.
9. This will take about 10 minutes and is not very difficult as the slime easily separates between your fingers.
10. If a looser, more slimy texture is desired knead in a bit more water.
11. The more water you add, the slimier it gets.
12. The slime doesn't leave a residue and doesn't get stuck on anything.
13. Store in an airtight container.
14. This can easily be doubled, tripled or quadrupled.
15. THIS RECIPE IS NOT FOR EATING!
