Gather and set up a calm workspace.

Place a silicone mat or parchment on your table for a soft, non-stick surface.

Warm a cup of water nearby so you can move through the steps without rushing.

Mix the base ingredients in the saucepan.

Combine cornstarch, warm water, vinegar, and glycerin in the saucepan and stir gently.

Warm the mixture slowly over low heat and stir continuously.

Add color in small amounts and stir until it blooms uniformly.

Pour or spoon the bioplastic onto the mat.

Place tiny embellishments while the film is still tacky.

Let the pieces cool and set at room temperature.

Carefully peel the suncatchers from the mat.

Trim and shape with scissors for neat edges.

String and hang where sunlight dances.
