Say Goodbye to Stress With This Aromatherapy Slime

Say Goodbye to Stress With This Aromatherapy Slime


We can all agree that it's near impossible to not touch, squish, or twist slime once it's in front of you. Add glitter and a little fragrance, and you'd be nuts to pass up on the opportunity to play with the gooey stuff. Click through for an easy DIY of aromatherapy slime.
Materials + Tools: - 4 ounces clear Elmer's Glue - 2 teaspoons borax - 1 cup cold water - 1/3 cup warm water - 1/2 cup foam beads - 1 teaspoon blitter - 1 teaspoon lavender fragrance - 1 teaspoon food coloring
Mix 4 ounces glue with 1 cup cold water.
Mix in foam beads, fragrance, food coloring, and of course glitter.
In a separate bowl, mix together the warm water and borax.
Pour in the borax solution into the colorful glue, then stir.
Stir, stir, and stir some more.
Get that gooey substance into your hands to relieve stress with the therapeutic slime and calming lavender smell.
Repeat the steps with a different color.
Once you have a few colors, arrange the slime side-by-side.
Twist together for a rainbow effect.
