    Hi there! You can find flubber-making instructions on my blog at http://easybreezyparties.com.au/party-inspiration-and-ideas/item/17-how-to-make-flubber.html. The test tubes and stands came from Happy Lab http://www.happylab.com.au/. You can often buy test tubes in party shops, though I haven't seen them with these rounded bottoms or with the stand.

    Prim tables? I'm not sure what that means! But the printables were from The Party Chick on Etsy, and the test tubes with stands were from Happy Lab in Melbourne, Australia (www.happylab.com.au).
