Project Idea
  • Color changing slime
  • Secret treasure map
  • Hot to cold mug (make sure to check if the thermochromic extract you're using is food safe)
  • Use in resin to make jewelry, key chains, and more
  • Make up a magic trick (professional magicians use thermochromic extract for their tricks all the time)
  • Use thermochromic extract mixed with paint to make a rock garden that changes colors in the sun

 

These are just a few ideas, what will you come up with?
