Glow in the dark crafts are not just for Halloween. There are so many possibilities for your projects to glow – and we’ve rounded up our favorites.
These glow in the dark ideas will allow you to have the best glowstick party ever. Plus, glow in the dark crafts for kids are always fun and sometimes educational. I love to see the look on a child’s face after playing with glow in the dark play dough and watching them enjoy the little things in life. Glow crafts can be so mesmerizing and now I just want to know all of the things that glow in blacklight so I can throw a party myself! Because I’m totally hip and cool, right?
Glow in the dark ideas don’t have to be for parties. You can make your own glow in the dark flowers (WHAT) and even a table?! The possibilities are endless for us crafters – both young and old.
First, our Facebook fans fell in love with this glow in the dark table. Seems too good to be true, but this table has full instructions for how to make your own. For free.
With the help of a blacklight, you man make your own glow-in-the dark play dough which looks like so much fun!

I want to try all of these ideas! The glow in the dark play dough and dinosaurs seem like a great way to keep energetic kids occupied. The mason jars and the table would be awesome for an outdoor party in the summer. Maybe you could even use the jars to catch a few fireflies?
It always amazes me how one small detail such as glow in the dark paint can really breathe vibrancy into something. I bet there are people out there who would pay big bucks for a full wood floor with the glow in the dark resin treatment that Mike Warren uses for his tables.
These are such awesome craft ideas, they scream modern and forward and are new ways for families to get involved in out of the box crafts.
Oh, this has my name all over it! Perfect for doing with little ones or to give yourself a lift while waiting for spring to finally arrive. I’m starting with the glow-in-the-dark flowers. Can’t you also imagine it as a pick-me-up gift for a friend who needs a lift? The balloons are very tempting, too.and would add a welcome to any evening event without much cost. Really terrific ideas!
It’s amazing how much glow in the dark projects fascinate me even as an adult! I love the concept of the glow in the dark table as well as the mason jars for parties or even just lighting for a chill night on the porch.
I love being able to find new ways to make things glow in the dark. I make a lot of tie-dye and love using flwo-in-the-dark paint on top of the tie-dye design to make shirts that glow in the dark. It gives customers two shirts for the price of one! And I definitely want to make that table that glows in the dark. I must agree with a previous comment in that people definitely would pay big bucks for a floor or wall or ceiling done the way the table is.
I’m amazed at the simplicity of these projects and the ability to turn a simple craft into out of this world fun! Showing all these different ideas for ways to make things glow in the dark has inspired me to start seeing common objects in a different light and having the possibility to utilize the glow in the dark system in other everyday objects! My favorite idea is the bouncing ball, I have tried to make glow in the dark bouncing balls via a packet however these bouncy balls seem to be more vibrant and I would love to try it!
Oh, that glow-in-the-dark bike is genius! It scares me to death when I see kids in the neighborhood at night on bikes and scooters; you can hardly see them coming. This looks really cool, so I’d bet that a lot of young kids would be attracted to it, and it serves a practical safety purpose.
For someone who loves gardening as much as I do, I’m also really attracted to the terrarium project. It would be soothing to have a glow-in-the-dark garden at night. Would that have to be done with plastic plants, or would real plants be okay with the paint?
