This glowing galaxy in a jar is a simple, hands-on craft that turns water, glue, paint, glitter, and star confetti into a swirling miniature universe.

Ingredients

  • Mason jar: 1, clean and in good condition with no cracks or chips
  • Water: sufficient to fill the jar, leaving room for other materials
  • Clear glue: adequate for mixing with water
  • Glow-in-the-dark paint: 1 colorful paint, follow product label for use and charging instructions
  • Holographic glitter: a small amount, adjust based on desired effect
  • Star confetti: small amount, keep away from young children
  • Lid: 1, that fits securely on the jar

Instructions

  1. Fill the mason jar with water, leaving enough room to stir in the other materials.
  2. Mix in the clear glue, stirring until it is combined.
  3. Add colorful glow-in-the-dark paint, stirring until its color spreads through the liquid.
  4. Sprinkle in holographic glitter and star confetti, starting with a small amount.
  5. Seal the lid tightly and check that it is seated properly.
  6. Shake the jar gently to see the glitter and stars move through the liquid.
  7. Follow the directions on the glow-in-the-dark paint for it to glow.

Notes

An adult should handle the lid and supervise the materials, especially the small confetti pieces. The contents are for decoration, not for drinking or play by young children.
