What I love about making homemade slime is that there are so many different ways you can make it. Using the directions above for the floam slime we gave this recipe a Valentine’s Day twist by adding in 2 tablespoons of pink paint (I wanted it super pink) after step 2. Then in step 3 we did a mixture of red and white polystyrene balls.
In order to make sure that your slime turns out, be sure to read the instructions and the ingredients carefully. Do not substitute the ingredients in the slime or it can result in your slime not forming.
The type of glue and saline solution you use is very important. Always make sure you’re using saline solution that contains sodium borate and boric acid. And for glue, you need a quality PVA glue, I prefer Elmer’s for our slime recipes.
Slime Storage: Store your slime in an airtight container or a Ziploc bag with all of the air pressed out when you’re finished.
