Galaxy bottles are one of my very favorite crafts. It’s designed for younger children, and it has been said that it’s very calming/soothing to them. I’m sure that’s 100% true because as an adult, I could sit and stare at these bottles until I fell asleep 😴
I love sensory projects, and I love them even more when they’re affordable and easy!
All you need for this project is…
Empty bottle(s)
Baby Oil
Glitter
Food coloring
Cotton Balls (optional)
You can choose any glitter/color combo you like, but I love the purples, pinks, and blues for a calming color blend!
First, add about 4-5 cotton balls to the bottle. Remember. The cotton balls are not necessary. They simply bring a little more fun to the texture of your creation.
Then, fill your bottles half way full with baby oil. Once the bottle has the oil, add the glitter. I use about 3/4-1 TSP. Gently swirl it together.
In a separate measuring cup, mix water with the food coloring of your choice and stir well.
Pour the colored water slowly into the bottle, leaving just about a 1/2-1 inch space at the top. Reseal the bottle, and shake!
Sit back & enjoy your portable galaxy! ✨💫💜
