Top Tip

Soak the water beads over night so you don't have to wait for them to grow. Then just add the larger water beads into the bottle when you make the craft.

  4. Shake the bottle to move the water beads around in the water.
  5. When the contents settle, seal the lid onto the bottle with super glue or hot glue gun to prevent leakage when shaken.
