DIY Essential Oil Slime

 

Being totally honest here, I'm not the biggest slime fan, but my kids LOVE it so I've embraced it! Here's a recipe that's super simple and I love that you can add your favorite oils to it to bring a little calm to the chaos - ha! -Katie Weber

ESSENTIAL OIL SLIME

You will need:

  • 1 bottle Elmer's clear 5oz. glue

  • 1 teaspoon Borax

  • 1 cup warm water, divided in half

  • Glitter (optional or you could sub with glitter glue for less mess)

  • 4-6 drops of the essential oil of your choice - we love stress away, lavender and white angelica!

  • Airtight container

Prep:

  1. In a small bowl, mix together 1/2 cup warm water & Borax until dissolved. Set aside.

  2. In a separate bowl, pour entire glue bottle and other 1/2 cup water. Stir well.

  3. Stir in essential oil & glitter to bowl that contains glue.

  4. Very, very slowly pour a SMALL amount of the water/Borax mixture into the glittery water/glue mixture. (1 teaspoon at a time).

  5. Use your hands to knead together.

  6. Add in more water/Borax until it reaches desired consistency.
