Description
A mesmerizing arts and crafts project that allows you to create a stunning galaxy jar, perfect for decor or gifting.
Ingredients
- Clear glass jar or container with a lid
- Water
- Clear glue (or white glue)
- Liquid food coloring (blue, purple, black, and optional colors)
- Glitter (fine or coarse)
- Cotton or cotton balls
- Small, star-shaped confetti (optional)
- Spoon for mixing
Instructions
- Prepare Your Jar: Start with a clean glass jar; ensure it’s dry and free from debris.
- Mix the Galaxy Base: In a bowl, combine water with clear glue (ratio of 1:1). Stir well until fully mixed. This will be your galaxy liquid.
- Add Colors: Divide your galaxy liquid into separate containers. Add a few drops of liquid food coloring to each container. For a classic galaxy effect, consider dark blue, purple, and black. Mix thoroughly; enjoy watching the vibrant colors blend!
- Layer the Ingredients: Begin with a base layer of glue mixture in the jar. Add a layer of cotton balls to create a nebula effect. Sprinkle in some glitter for a starry shimmer. Continue layering colors, glue mixture, and cotton. If using, add star-shaped confetti between the layers for extra sparkle.
- Seal and Display: Once satisfied with your layers, carefully seal the jar with the lid. Give it a gentle shake to mix it slightly, then place your galaxy jar on display.
