These wide-mouth polypropylene jars make it easy to store and remove slime. While styrene (clear) is typically what novice slimers will turn to, these see-through, clarified regular-wall jars offers peace of mind when it comes to shipping. 

Oftentimes, a customer excited about purchasing slime is disappointed upon opening their package to find the styrene has cracked during transit due to the items not having been correctly and safely packaged. 

No worries! Parkway Plastics to the rescue! In the review video below, Instagram slimer ( @sonriaslime) demonstrates the durability of Parkway Jars (volume up!):

How To Make Slime Containers - If you've just made a batch of slime and hadn't yet considered how to store your slime, you can craft your own slime container using a plastic cup cut to size and
cover it with some plastic wrap; however this could get messy, and if you're looking to share or sell your slime on Etsy, you may be ready for a professional, high-quality slime storage container.
Parkway Plastics Inc. manufactures these regular wall containers that are see-through (we call them "Clarified") and they come in a variety of sizes that are popular in the slime-making industry (4 oz, 6 oz, 8 oz; 70 mm, 89 mm, 100 mm and more!).
You can also get the matching screw-top lids (we call them "natural") which is important for keeping your slime sealed properly so it won't dry out quickly.

How to Seal Slime Containers
You can use plastic wrapped around your container with a rubber band or you can use a screw-top lid to keep your slime sealed properly.

How to Clean Slime Containers
Over time, if you're storing your slime in a plastic cup or something similar, your slime may begin sticking to the sides of the cup resulting in hard bits of dried out slime residue.
To clean out a container, you should empty as much slime as possible by pouring it out into a trash can and wiping away the excess with a paper towel, before rinsing with soap and water.
With Parkway's smooth containers (no ridges) and super smooth plastic screw-top lids, clean-up is a breeze!

How to Make Homemade Mini Slime Containers
Youtuber, Nim, shared a how-to video of how she makes homemade mini slime containers. For the slime, you mix a tiny amount of glue and acrylic paint with some laundry detergent and then knead it with your fingers. For the container,
you cut a wide straw down to the size you want; add a thin layer of hot glue to parchment paper and place the straw on top (this creates the bottom of the container); cut away the excess glue and paint the bottom if you'd like;
decorate a small strip of paper to create a label and tape or hot glue the label to the container. To create a lid, carefully using a blade, cut out a circle of foam board. Then using a thin slice of
the leftover wide straw, cut it open and create a smaller piece by overlapping the ends and securing it with hot glue. Next, glue the foam piece on top of this smaller circle to create your lid.
Fill your container with a bit of slime, add your lid, voila!

DID YOU KNOW: Parkway Plastics offers mini size slime containers too?! We offer tiny containers as small as 1/8 oz, and yes, you can also get matching lids for them as well! Our 1/8 oz containers are Thick Wall jars, which means there is no overhang or visible "lip" around the edge; our smallest Regular Wall jars are the 33 mm - 1/4oz containers.
