Description
Transform basic materials into vibrant Lava Lamp Style Suncatchers that dance with light and color, perfect for home decor.
Ingredients
- Clear plastic or glass jar
- Water
- Vegetable oil
- Food coloring (various colors)
- Glitter or small beads (optional)
- Clear glue (optional for sealing)
- String or fishing line for hanging
- Small funnel (optional)
Instructions
- Clean the Jar: Ensure the jar is clean and dry before beginning.
- Add Water: Use a funnel to pour water into the jar, filling it about one-third full.
- Pour Oil: Slowly add vegetable oil to the jar, filling the rest of the way. Watch for separation as oil floats on top.
- Add Color: Drop in your chosen food coloring. The colors will sink through the oil and create beautiful effects.
- Sprinkle Glitter: If desired, add a small amount of glitter or beads for extra flair. They can float and swirl like vibrant stars!
- Seal the Jar: If using, apply clear glue around the rim of the jar before securing a lid to prevent leakage. Alternatively, skip the seal for a temporary suncatcher.
- Add String: Attach string or fishing line to the top of the jar for easy hanging.
Notes
Experiment with color combinations and container shapes for unique designs. Keep your suncatcher out of direct sunlight to prevent fading.
