Materials
- Baking soda
- White vinegar
- Food coloring
- Pipe cleaners
- A shallow dish
- A mixing bowl
- A stirring utensil
Instructions
- Begin by mixing equal parts baking soda and vinegar in your mixing bowl. The reaction will fizz gently, creating a delightful sound and texture.
- Once the fizzing subsides, add in a few drops of food coloring. You can choose your favorite shades or mix them for a harmonious blend.
- Stir the mixture until well combined. The colors will beautifully swirl together, reminiscent of a soft rainbow.
- While this mixture sits, shape your pipe cleaners into desired forms (like flowers or spirals) and place them in the shallow dish.
- Carefully pour the colored mixture over the pipe cleaners, ensuring they are well covered.
- Allow the creation to sit undisturbed overnight. This is when the magic truly happens as the crystals form.
- The next day, gently remove the pipe cleaners. You’ll find your vibrant rainbow crystals nestled in place, ready to shine.
