The steps below follow the order of the work for this crafts project.
Thought this would be a fun repost back from a few years ago when no one was reading my blog!
These are the coolest! Like Totally! Sorry the valley girl in me just slipped out…
Anyway, I saw this option on The Cupcake Cuppy,
she saw it somewhere else, thus is the blog hopping world turns.
I realized I had to try this one out, and the possibilities are endless. I am in love with this craft! It was a little messy and took a while, and I still haven’t cleaned out the crystals from my pan yet so… Oh well.
Crystal Hearts
Borax (3T per cup of water)
Water
Pipe cleaners- Any color you want
Pencil or dowel etc.
thread
Food coloring optional,- but this didn’t really work for me, I may not have put enough?!
Like I was saying the possibilities are endless, and my Christmas bone is itching to use this option,
but we still have about 318 days til that is even a possibility!
As for the kiddos helping, they really could make any shapes they wanted. Also I think this is a fun science project for kids, but you will have to look up why this happens… sorry bout that, I am too busy crafting! And if I explained it to Etta, I am sure she wouldn’t care at this point.
You likey?
