Easter Slime {Only 2 Ingredients!}

TopView_650text

Slime has been all the rage lately and I am sure you've seen it all over Instagram with people sticking their fingers in it or just videos of them making it! You can even buy slime on Etsy... but, why pay for it if you can make your own at home? This Easter slime is even fun for adults to make! You can make it with your kids over Spring break, make it and store it in little glass mason jars like I did and put it in their Easter baskets or even stuff their Easter eggs with it! It's just so fun to make and rather addictive!

I filled these little mason jars with the slime and did a smaller portion inside a plastic egg. You could even make slime making kits to give out at parties. Slime is so fun and easy to make!

How to Make Easter Slime
Make3
For supplies, you'll want TWO 5 oz bottles of Washable Clear Glue (Elmer's brand), 1/2 cup of Liquid Starch and some sort of Easter item to add into the slime.


Make1
If you're wondering what liquid starch is (don't worry, I was too!)... you can find it by the regular canned starch at Target, Walmart or even your local grocer may have it. It isn't very expensive either. It is supposed to be safer than using Borax.


Make2
I added the little plastic eggs to one batch of the slime I made, but I also added bunny and chicks confetti to the other two batches. I used to collect confetti as a child and I still have my container of confetti. Too funny, right? I never knew I'd use this confetti again!


Make4 Make5
First, dump the two bottles of clear glue into a bowl. Then slowly mix the 1/2 cup of Liquid Starch into the glue. It'll turn into slime right away!


Make6
Then I like to divide the slime up into batches on individual plates and I mix different things into the slime, such as mini eggs, confetti, glitter... You can even use food coloring. I have heard the neon food coloring is a favorite (only use 4 drops or it'll get all over your hands) and if you want your slime to be scented- you can add some scented lotion or oils into it!


EasterEgg1
I even separated a tinier batch of the slime to put into this egg. It has chick confetti and glitter mixed into the slime. These would make fun Easter egg fillers!

I hope you enjoyed my Easter slime recipe and you get a chance to try it out.

My Invisalign Journey (Trays 9-15) and Progression Photos

Today I am going to share a little more about My Invisalign Journey with you. Back in May, I shared my first Invisalign post HERE and talked about my first 8 trays with Invisalign. Today I am going to share some information and progression photos for Trays 9-15. And, no, I am not done with Invisalign yet. After your first round of trays (I had 15 trays), they start revision trays. Unfortunately, I found out I have 18 revision trays... I am currently on tray 3 of those. I will continue to share updates as my progress continues. I talk about why I went with Invisalign and what the entire process was like in my first post (see link below). I am not going to repeat it all in this post, but I will share my progression photos with you. If you have any questions, be sure to let me know in the comments.

Y'all! I DID IT! 2016 Chicago Marathon Recap!!!

I am really excited to share this post with all of you today. I have been wanting to run a marathon for a really, really, REALLY long time. I was too afraid to do it, I was afraid I would fail. I started out running in 2009 after I had my daughter and signed up to run 500 miles in one year with friends I met on  Babycenter   I started out walking and running... but, I did it! I completed 500 miles in 2009. My first 5K was at our local zoo and then I branched out and did a Halloween 10K. After that, I signed up for my first half marathon here in St. Louis and my second half marathon was the Wine & Dine at Disney... My first half marathon time was 2:35 and my best has been 2:04 and a HUGE dream/goal of mine is to complete one in under 2:00 hours. But... first I toyed around with the idea of running a marathon.  All  of my running friends kept telling me to JUST DO IT. That I'd do just fine. But, I was sacred.... Finally, 7 years later I have RAN MY FIRST MARATHON! ...
