Glurch / Flubber

This homemade silly putty is a fun mixture of glue and borax that makes a jelly like substance.

  • 3/4 cup white glue
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup water
  • 3 tbsp borax (found in the laundry aisle)
  • food colouring (optional)

Mix together glue and 1 cup water in a small bowl.

In a seperate bowl, mix together borax and 1 cup water. Be sure to stir well, or the Borax will drop to the bottom of your bowl.

If you are interested in having colourful glurch, mix a few drops of food colouring into one of the mixtures.

Scoop a few spoonfuls of borax mixture into the glue mixture and stir. You may not need to add in the entire borax mixture. You want to end up with a 3 to 1 mixture of 3 parts water/glue mixture to 1 part water/borax mixture.

As you stir, the mixture will gets it’s jelly like appearance and feel.
You can now run the mixture through your fingers and have some fun!
Be sure to wash your hands when you are done playing!
