Begin by getting all your supplies ready.

I wanted to add in some fun beads from Mini Shamrock necklaces and Small Diamond necklaces. I cut the beaded shapes apart and placed them in a bowl for easy access after the slime was mixed.

Now on to making the slime.

This is one of our favorite slime recipes. It is so easy.

Empty out 2 bottles of school glue into a bowl. You can use clear or regular white glue.

Add in 1 Tablespoon of contact solution and stir.

At this point the slime will start to form and pull away from the bowl. You can now add in some glitter or coloring if you want. For the color, you can use food coloring, or some paint.
