Rose Art Super Bouncing Balls Instructions

Instructions for making Rose Art's Super Bouncing Balls Craft Kit

• Step 1: Snap together two separate pieces of a matching mold (large or small) to make a ball. There will be a hole in the top of the mold.
  Step 2: Cut a corner of a powder packet and pour it into the hole on top of the mold until it reaches the fill line.
  Step 3: You can create a solid-colored ball by filling the mold with one color. Or you can mix and match your colors. For example, to create a striped ball, fill it one-fourth or one-third the way with one color, let it settle, and repeat the process two or three more times. Or hold the ball at an angle to create other patterns.
  Step 4: Submerge the entire mold in water for one minute. Room temperature water is fine.
  Step 5: Wait at least 5 minutes before unmolding the super bouncing ball.

Tips and advice for making Rose Art's Super Bouncing Balls

• ̶6; It may take a few tries to get a pattern. The powder has a texture similar to powdered dishwashing detergent or powdered laundry detergent, making it a little sticky and easier to manage than a finer grain.
  ̶6; There is a certain amount of trial and error. Not all 16 balls will be perfect. At the end of the afternoon, expect about 10 usable bouncy balls flying around the house.
  ̶6; Store the balls in a plastic bag when not in use.
  ̶6; The balls will eventually harden and be ready for the garbage.
  ̶6; Refills of the powder are not currently available; however, the kit sells for $6 to $12 and could be worth just buying a new one.
