Decorative White Sand

This sand works really well at simulating salt and sugar.

Coarse White Sand

Now you can add fake salt on fake pretzels woo hooo. Also I found this decorative sand in the wedding section of the craft store. In the regular kids section there was sand but the white sand there was still like brownish gray. So just check the wedding section, it just seems like they bleached this sand to make it look so white.

and here is a comparison shot between this sand and the Glass Glitter that I used in my fake sugar tutorial.

Fake Salt and Sugar Crystals

and I also grinded up this sand to make it finer to make fake powdered sugar I’ll post a pic of that later though. Its cheaper to just grind it up yourself instead of buying a whole new bag of fine sand.

anywho I hope this post was helpful

Glue that dries white and custom colors

Here is a quick tip for you.

If you want to make your own glue that dries white all you need to do is to take your glue and just add some white acrylic paint and stir and as easy as 1.2.3 you have glue that dries white.

You can also do this with other colors or create your own custom color glue. The possibilities are endless. Now you can make rainbows from glue, tie dye effects, make cute characters from the glue, add embellishments and make flowers, jewelry or on paper tags there is just so much you can do that this sentence is going on and on and on and on .

This is a really fun thing to do.
