    How to Make Slime Keeper Globes

    Everyone is making and playing with Slime. This project shows you how to make a container to store Slime in or give as a gift. Our acrylic globes make a great storage container for Slime. The outside surface of the acrylic globes allows you to use your creativity to make a one of a kind container. Below is a list of the products used to make the two featured Slime Keepers. Globe One is covered with colored tissue paper creating a mosaic look. Globe Two is uniquely cover with original art using oil based markers making the art permanent.

    Separate globe creating two halves. Cut tissue into small squares.  Attach to clean outer globe surface using STF Multi Media Varnish. Always use a dry brush. Do not use water until clean up.
