  • 8 oz water
  • poster paint
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 1 1/2 tsp. borax powder
  • 2 mixing bowls
Instructions:
  1. Empty glue into a bowl. Fill glue bottle with water, stir and empty it into the bowl; stir.
  2. Add poster paint, start with a few drops and then increase until desired color is made.
  3. In a second bowl combine borax with water.
  4. In the large bowl, combine the two mixtures. Mix and kneed until it becomes elasticy goop.
