DIY Galaxy Ornaments

Who's ready for a 5 minute craft that the kids will love? If you have little ones who are obsessed with everything celestial or scientific, making their own galaxy is going to be awesome!

We were inspired by our new Galaxy Watercolor wedding invitations. Beautiful whimsical purples, blues, and pinks sprinkled with glitter will get you lost in another world of imagination.

Supplies

Clear plastic ornaments or any container of your choice

Cotton balls

Food dye 2-3 colors

Glitter

Water

Glue

Step 1

This is a layering game so every step is going to be small additions of ingredients. Start with water and add two drops of your first color.

Step 2

Insert enough cotton balls to fill the layer. We inserted 4-5 for this size.

Step 3

Grab your second color and add 2-3 drops over the cotton balls. Try to get the drops to land in the middle and sides so the color can spread out.

Step 4

Add your glitter.

Step 5

Repeat steps 1-4 and keep layering your ingredients.

We suggest gluing the top on to avoid unwanted spills.

Enjoy your new mini galaxy! Play around with different containers for a fun desktop galaxy or home decor addition.
