100% Edible Slime Ingredients:
🎄4 tablespoons green dry Jello mix
🎄Christmas themed sprinkles
🎄1 Small Cypress Sweets Candy grab-n-go full of green, red and white Albanese Christmas Gummies
🎄2 tablespoons cornstarch
🎄1 tablespoons powdered sugar
🎄3 tablespoons water
Non-Edible Craft Supplies Needed:
- Red holiday ribbon
- Fillable Christmas ornament with a screw on lid. This can also be a mason jar or you can use a Cypress Sweets candy jar to create the ornament.
- Black permanent paint marker
- Fun wiggle eyes 👀
- Glue stick or glue gun
Also helpful:
- Small funnel
- Plastic craft tools
- Plastic gloves
Steps:
- Turn on holiday music, preferably The Grinch Soundtrack.
- Prepare a space to craft and cover the surface.
- Create your bowl of green edible slime.
- Stir cornstarch and green dry jello until mixed well.
- Add water and continue to stir.
- Add powdered sugar and continue to stir.
- You can now control the consistency of your slime by examining it and stirring in either water or cornstarch one teaspoon at a time, as needed.
- Note 📝 For this craft we want the slime to be thick, but we need to be able to pour the slime. So, you may need to add some more water.
- Set your slime aside.
- Add your choice of fun candy to the bottom of your fillable ornament! For this craft we are adding Christmas sprinkles and a Cypress Sweets Candy grab-n-go of green, red and white Albanese Christmas Gummies!
- Pour the slime into the fillable ornament over your candy using a small funnel. Take your time. There may be areas of thicker slime. This can be done without a funnel, but it is more messy! Top off your slime with candy or sprinkles. Screw on the lid.
- Wipe up any slime on the outside of your ornament and make sure it is dry.
- Choose the side of your ornament that will be Grinch’s face and use a glue stick or glue gun to affix wiggle eyes to the outside of the ornament.
- Using google for inspiration, draw Grinch’s face on the ornament with the black paint marker. It dries quickly and two coats of paint usually does the trick. Tip: you can’t wipe it off once you have started.
- Use red ribbon to decorate the top of your Grinch ornament.
