Sensory calm down bottle


I've seen (and pinned) a lot of these glittery sensory/calm down bottles on Pinterest lately. I had to make my own. 
A lot of the ones on Pinterest are made from pop bottles, but I didn't find them strong or light enough. I decided to use a plastic tupperware type storage jar for mine, it's strong and completely see through.

First I gathered all my supplies.
I filled about half of the jar with fresh boiled water from the kettle, then added my glitter glue (stirring it well so it didnt stick to itself or the jar)
then I added pink ink, and lots of different sized glitter and sequins.
I stirred it a bit more and then filled the rest up with some tap water, only left a little bit of free space before putting on the lid.

I've put this on the kitchen windowsill, it's very pretty to look at, however in the bright sunlight has faded a little bit, so I'll be adding some more ink to it soon.
