The Best Ever Stretchy, Fluffy, and Glittery Slime Recipe

November 1, 2018 by Vikram Goyal

Hey guys!

If you’re like me you’ve made many unsuccessful slimes that seem to stick to your clothes, your furniture, and probably everything in sight.

Been there, done that!

Anyway, to avoid that, here’s a no-fail slime recipe that seems to work every single time with great, fun results, perfect for kids.

Also, here are a few tips, tricks, and precautions before we get started:

  • Keep slime away from babies and toddlers.
  • Always Always Always wash your hands after making and/or playing with slime.
  • This slime is not edible! (but there are a few edible slimes out there!)
  • When purchasing the shaving cream, just grab the cheapest bottle. It still works and for some reason, kids like to go CRAZY with the shaving cream…
  • You don’t really need to measure everything out. Just eye it, and a rough idea is good.
  • When finished playing with the slime, keep it in an airtight container. Slime dries out very quickly!
  • Just watch what surfaces your kids put the slime down on…

With that done, let’s start making it!

You can also watch our video to make the same slime below!

Ingredients:
Elmer’s Glitter Glue (in your choice of color – we chose silver)
Elmer’s Magical Liquid
Shaving Cream (any brand is fine)

Method:
Step 1. Pour 4 oz of the Glitter Glue into a bowl.
Step 2. Add 1/2 cup shaving cream and mix well.
Step 3. Add 1/4 cup Magical Liquid and mix immediately and well.
Step 4. Once combined, take mixture out of the bowl and knead with hands until slime is not sticky and can be played with.
Step 5. Enjoy!

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.

Woolie and Furry Upcycled Slippers by Made By Barb

If you’re a fan of cozy, sustainable crafting, the Woolie & Furry Upcycled Slippers tutorial by Made By Barb is a must-try. This project combines creativity, comfort, and eco-consciousness, resulting in a pair of slippers that are both stylish and functional.

What Makes These Slippers Special?

Barb’s approach to slipper-making is rooted in upcycling, using materials like old Ugg boots, vintage wool blankets, and shearling from repurposed jackets. This not only gives new life to items that might otherwise be discarded but also ensures that each pair of slippers is unique. The use of thick, doubled wool provides substantial warmth and durability, making these slippers ideal for chilly mornings or lounging at home.

The Crafting Process

The tutorial is detailed and accessible, guiding you through each step with clear instructions and helpful tips. Barb introduces the concept of free-motion sewing, encouraging you to “doodle with a sewing machine” to create quilted patterns on the wool. This technique adds a personal touch to the slippers and enhances their texture. The pattern is designed for women’s size 8.5–9 feet but can be easily adjusted for different sizes by printing at a slightly smaller scale.

Materials You’ll Need

  • Old Ugg boots or shearling jackets

  • Vintage virgin wool blankets

  • Free-motion sewing foot for your sewing machine

  • Waxed thread and a strong needle

  • Contact cement for attaching soles

  • A pair of old sandals or flip-flops for the base

 

The Woolie & Furry Upcycled Slippers tutorial by Made By Barb is a delightful project for anyone interested in sustainable crafting. The slippers are not only warm and comfortable but also a testament to the beauty of upcycling. Whether you’re looking to treat yourself or create a thoughtful gift, this tutorial provides all the guidance you need to craft a pair of cozy slippers that are as unique as they are functional.
