Description

Create a charming glitter jar that doubles as a soothing sensory tool, perfect for both decoration and relaxation.


Ingredients

  • A clean, clear jar with a lid (mason jar works great!)
  • Water
  • Glitter (various colors)
  • Liquid food coloring (optional)
  • Glycerin or clear glue (to slow glitter movement)
  • Mixing stick or spoon
  • Funnel (for easy pouring)
  • Flashlight (optional, for added effect)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Jar: Ensure the jar is clean and dry. If using a lid, make sure it fits tightly to prevent spills.
  2. Mix the Water and Glycerin: In a bowl, mix 1 part glycerin or clear glue with 3 parts water. Stir to achieve a uniform consistency.
  3. Add Color and Glitter: If desired, add several drops of liquid food coloring to the mixture, then stir well. Add 2-3 tablespoons of glitter to the jar.
  4. Fill the Jar: Use the funnel to pour the glycerin mixture into the jar carefully, filling it almost to the top. Secure the lid tightly.
  5. Shake It Up: Gently shake the jar and enjoy watching the glitter swirl and settle.

Notes

Consider using biodegradable glitter for an eco-friendly option. The effects can vary with different combinations of glitter and colors.
