Crystal Suncatchers
Materials
Epsom salt (you can buy here)
Water
Clear plastic lid
Empty jar
Tray
Directions
Add 1 cup of Epsom salt to an empty glass jar
Add 1 cup of water to a microwave safe bowl. Heat in the microwave for 45 seconds
Pour the water into the jar with the salt. Do this quickly so that the water is warm. Stir the salt and water for 1-2 minutes to dissolve the salt.
Place several plastic lids on a flat-bottomed tray in a sunny location where they can remain undisturbed
Pour off some of the excess liquid from your jar/crystal garden into the recycled plastic lids. Use just enough to cover the bottom of the lid. Don’t overfill.
Place your lids in sunny location. Depending on how much liquid has been added it will take a few hours or a day to start crystallizing.
When the liquid has completely evaporated your crystal suncatcher is ready
