Hi Carol

Thank you for your suggestion

I replaced salt for the sand and used food coloring.

Use a new container of salt and pour it into a zip lock bag.

Add as many drops of food coloring as need to obtain the color of choice, approximately 15 to 20 drops. Close zip lock while mixing color.

Use a new container of salt for each color.

It will last a long time. A lot cheaper than buying colored sand.

Thank you for sharing Barry. There will be a video shortly on how to colour the sand.

That is very inspiring Barry!

What a fantastic idea. You could also dye the sand using food colouring.

Fantastic idea! You could also decorate parts with lace.
