Ingredients
Scale
- 1 clear glass or plastic jar with a lid
- 1/2 cup clear glue
- 1 cup warm water
- 1 tablespoon glow-in-the-dark paint or glow powder
- Liquid food coloring (rainbow colors)
- 1 tablespoon glitter (optional, silver or rainbow)
- 1 teaspoon baby oil or vegetable oil

Instructions
- In a bowl or directly in the jar, combine the clear glue and warm water. Stir until fully blended.
- Stir in the glow-in-the-dark paint or powder to give the jar a glowing thundercloud effect.
- Drop food coloring around the inside of the jar in rainbow layers. Avoid mixing too much for a streaky cloud look.
- Sprinkle in glitter for a sparkling stormy vibe. Stir gently if needed.
- Pour in the oil slowly to create swirling movement and separate the colors for a cascading rainbow storm.
- Place a small LED tea light underneath or behind the jar to enhance the glow at night.
