This Halloween slime recipe yields a stretchy, colorful treat using clear glue, water, baking soda, and boric acid. You can customize the look with orange, lime green, and purple food coloring and glitter, then decorate the slime with googly eyes in mini Halloween cauldrons. The process involves mixing the base ingredients, adding the activators, kneading to the right consistency, and letting it rest before serving. Store the finished slime in airtight containers for up to a few weeks.
Ingredients
Directions
- Pour the water and clear glue into a mixing bowl, then stir them together with a spoon until they blend completely.
- Drop in your chosen food coloring and stir until the color is evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Sprinkle in your preferred amount of glitter and mix it thoroughly into the slime base.
- Measure out the baking soda and stir it into the bowl right away so it fully integrates.
- Add the boric acid and continue stirring until the slime pulls away from the bowl's edges, which should happen in roughly a minute.
- Use your hands to knead the slime. If it remains tacky, add a few extra drops of boric acid until it reaches the right consistency.
- Move the slime to a clean bowl, cover it with plastic wrap, and let it sit for five minutes to firm up slightly.
- Scoop small portions of the slime into the mini Halloween cauldrons and press googly eyes onto them for decoration.
- After you are done playing, keep the slime in sealed jars or containers for up to a few weeks.
