Fun with Borax

I am really glad I found Pinterest as it has motivated me to get busy and 'craft' with my son.  Some times he helps me and some times I work on things while he is off doing something else.  Working with boiling water made this a work on my own craft but he will still take credit for making these.  The ratio is 3 Tbs borax to 1 cup boiling water.  I made snowflakes with white pipe cleaners and blue water.  The hearts are red pipe cleaners and clear water.  Here is the process I used. 


After about an hour sitting on the counter the crystals were already forming.


By morning I had these beautiful items.





For our next craft, I think we are going to tackle bath fizzies!
