St. Patrick’s Day Golden Slime Recipe

You can make this St. Patrick’s Day Golden Slime with or without gold glitter. Without the glitter, it is a golden-colored slime, but my kids like the addition of glitter because it adds specks of gold throughout the slime that sparkle when the light hits them.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup white school glue
  • 1 tablespoon baking soda
  • 1/2 to 1 tablespoon sensitive saline solution
  • metallic gold acrylic paint
  • gold glitter (optional)golden slime ingredients

Directions:

  1. Pour school glue into your container and stir in baking soda to mix well.stirring baking soda into glue golden slime
  2. Once your first two ingredients are combined completely stir in gold paint and glitter if you want to add it for extra sparkle until you reach your desired shade.adding gold paint to diy golden slime recipe

Welcome. I'm Alea!

On Premeditated Leftovers I share simple recipes made with whole foods, practical shopping tips, time saving techniques, and meal planning strategies. I also share tips for minimizing food waste, so more of the food that is purchased ends up on the table.

While volunteering as a budget counselor, I realized that food is the element of most people’s budgets where they have the greatest control. I set out to develop low-cost recipes from scratch to prove it’s possible to create delicious meals on a limited budget. Eating well while spending less is about more than just creating recipes using inexpensive ingredients; it’s about creatively combining ingredients so you don’t feel deprived and are inspired to stick to your budget.
