Keep Screen Awake Prevent your screen from going dark

Prepare Your Materials: Gather all the materials listed above on a clean surface to ensure ease while crafting.
Mix the Solution: In your jar, pour about half a cup of clear dish soap. This will act as the base of your glow-in-the-dark solution.
Adding Glow: If you’re using glow in the dark paint, mix a tablespoon of it into your dish soap. For glow sticks, break one open and pour the contents into the jar. Make sure to avoid any spills.
Optional Ingredients: If you’d like a touch of sparkle, add a little glitter to the mixture. This can give your jar a fantastic look in the dark.
Final Touches: Add around a cup of water to the jar to dilute the mixture further. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
Seal and Charge: Put the lid on the jar tightly and leave it in a bright area for a few hours to “charge” the glow effect.
Enjoy the Results: Once charged, turn off the lights and see your creation glow brilliantly.
