DIY Gingerbread Scented Christmas Slime

by

This slime recipe is for a Christmas themed Gingerbread Slime.  I love gingerbread but unfortunately, I am the only one in my house so I very rarely buy it otherwise I will eat it all. This DIY slime recipe isn’t edible but it sure does smell great! It literally oozes the smells of Christmas. This slime would make a great gift for classmates or kids friends.

Planning on making this slime to give us gifts? We made a little printable for you to pop on the jars. Just download and print off these labels, they work really well with round plastic food containers.

Christmas stocking fillers will be all sorted with these little gift ideas.

Slime is a great stress reliever as well as an educational tool, not only does it teach science but it is hands-on , which means children are using their fine motor skills to make and or play with slime.

Check out our Amazon gift guide for kids who love slime, we basically sourced all the best Slime gifts, Slime kits, Slime supplies and Slime merchandise and crammed it all into one gift guide.  Slime Lovers Gift Guide.

Cross Stitch Ice Cream and Frozen Treats

Summer is the time for sweet treats, whether eating them or stitching them. This collection of patterns is full of designs that are good enough to eat. Almost. 

This year of ice creams from Simone Balman Art is lots of fun, and you could also stitch up these treats individually if you’d rather. The full piece is 210 by 300 stitches, though it’s not full coverage. It uses 25 colors and comes out to 13.6 by 20.1 inches, or 34.5 by 51.2 cm, as shown on 14 count fabric. 

These mini Popsicles from Mariana Gonclaves ART as super sweet and quick to stitch. These would also be a fun border to another summer project. The full design is 43 by 46 stitches, which is 3.1 by 3.3 inches, or 7.8 by 8.3 cm, on 14 count fabric. 

Sam X Stitch has this fun sweet treat sampler, which again would be fun to stitch as individual pieces (maybe on napkins?). In all it calls for 18 colors and measures 153 by 153 stitches. That comes out to 10.93 inches or 27.75 cm on 14 count fabric. 

Another great sampler is this one with ice cream and other sweet treats from Cute Patterns by Maria. At 119 by 132 stitches total, working the full pattern would be about 8.6 by 9.4 inches, or 22 by 24 cm on 14 count fabric, and it uses 33 colors. You can also stitch individual designs, which range in height from 35 to 45 stitches, and in width from 11 to 28. 

This collection of four sundae patterns from Stichrovia would be fun to make for a kitchen or a teen’s room. Each pattern is around 40 by 50 stitches, so they should fit in a four or five inch hoop if worked on 14 count fabric. 

Or stitch up one of the treats from Stitch Chart Studio‘s collection of seven ice cream cross stitch patterns. These range in size and in number of colors needed, but most would fit in a five or six in hoop (and one in a four inch hoop).
