STEP 2. Mix in a healthy amount of snowflake confetti and glitter if desired. Make sure to not add too much otherwise your slime will be more likely to break apart due to the confetti getting in the way.

Got a Frozen fan? This is perfect to go along with a favorite movie too!

STEP 3. Mix 1/4 tsp of borax powder into a 1/2 of warm water to make your slime activator solution.

Borax powder mixed with hot water is the slime activator that creates the rubbery, slimy texture you can’t wait to play with! It’s super easy to whip up this homemade slime recipe once you get the hang of it.

STEP 4. Add the borax solution to the water and glue mixture. Combine well.

You will see it come together right away. It will seem stringy and clumpy, but that’s ok! Remove from bowl and spend a few minutes kneading the mixture together. You may have leftover borax solution which you can discard.

We always recommend kneading your slime well after mixing. Kneading the slime really helps to improve it’s consistency.

TOO STICKY? If your slime still feels too sticky, you may need a few more drops of borax solution. You can always add but you can’t take away. The more activator solution you add, the stiffer the slime will become over time. Make sure to spend extra time kneading the slime instead!
