Easy fun painting with sparkling crystal effects.

Material

6 Tbsps Epsom Salt
1 Cup Water
Food Colouring
6 Small Bowls

Method

Add a tablespoon of Epsom Salt to each small Bowl.
Add drops of food colouring to each bowl.
Then add a bit of water to each bowl, mix together which should turn into a grainy texture.
Once you start painting the epsom salt creates a sparking effect which crystalises when drying.
