Again, a HUGE thank you to Elmer’s for sponsoring today’s BIRTHDAY THEMED SLIME idea!
Elmer’s School Glue is a washable, no-run glue that is easy to use and stays where you put it. It is safe, non-toxic and washable, so accidental messes mean easy clean-up! It’s also the #1 brand of school glue! And with our slime recipe today, Elmer’s glue makes a very durable, crosslinked polymer network, providing a high degree of elasticity which creates the “bounce-back” when slime is poked and pulled {science lesson, anyone?!}
Elmer’s Glue is available at popular retailers such as Target, Walmart and Amazon, and retails between $0.99 {4 fl oz} – $21.99 {1 gal.}.
You can stay up-to-date w/Elmer’s on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and even Instagram. We just LOVE their products and I hope you pick up a few bottles of glitter glue to recreate this slime craft today! You can also find more easy slime recipes and video tutorials, by visiting Elmers.com/slime.
