Once you have all of your supplies, decide what colors you want to use for the dyes and glitter.

Some suggestions are; dark green water, with gold glitter, blue water with white glitter, and mustard color with silver and blue glitter.

Add Your Glitter!

Take your chosen glitter colors, and fill the jar with as much glitter you want. Normally, I fill mine about 1/3 of an inch, but this can be changed as you experiment.

Add Water!

Now, fill your jar to 3/4 full.

Add Color!

After that, add your desired colors into your jar, and watch the colors float down. Then, shake up the jar, combining the colors.

Add Glue!

Now, fill up the rest of the jar with glue, but remember that the more glue you add, the slower it floats down.

Finished!

Once you are satisfied with your creation, put on the lid, and screw on tight. Now, you are done! Shake to combine everything, then watch the glitter float down!
