Mason Nebula Jar

This colorful DIY project is fun for kids and adults alike, and doubles as a calming sensory bottle: great for kids who need a little extra sensory support. Use non-toxic supplies so the whole family can make one worry-free, and lay down some newspaper for easy cleanup.

Supplies:

• A clean glass jar with a lid
• Tempera paints (at least two colors)
• Cotton balls
• Fine glitter
• Water

How to make it:

1. Fill about a third of the Mason jar with water.
2. Add several drops of paint.
3. Put the lid back on and shake to mix.
4. Add about 1 tsp of fine glitter.
5. Stretch out a handful of cotton balls to elongate them.
6. Add the stretched cotton balls until the bottom third of the jar is filled.
7. Repeat steps 1 to 6 with a different paint color for the next layer.
8. Seal the lid and enjoy your Mason Nebula Jar.

Make it a lasting keepsake: Swap the standard lid for a reCAP FLIP Lid so it seals tight for shaking and display, with no risk of a sticky spill.
