Pinterest 8: DIY Glitter

According to this site, we should have had our own homemade glitter with just these few items: table salt, food coloring, and an oven.


We followed the instructions, and put it in the oven for 10 minutes.


Looks about the same as it did going in.

So, as far as creating glitter, this was a BUST! But my kids enjoyed pouring salt and mixing the color in. Then we watched it "cook" in the oven. Since it didn't really do anything, I just added it to our I Spy bottles (which I still haven't glued shut yet).
