Guest Posted June 12, 2011 Posted June 12, 2011 On a lighter note! How can I make hundreds and thousands for the ice cream parlour this week? I thought about dying rice but will it go soggy? I don't think google understand what I mean!!!!
AnonyMouse_8466 Posted June 12, 2011 Posted June 12, 2011 We've coloured uncooked rice with food colouring and let it dry, and it hasn't gone soggy (well not unless it has been left in the glue!). Don't suppose you have one of those comb binding machines or know someone who has? They make excellent little rectangles of paper, great for confetti, or in this case, oversized hundreds of thousands! Google can be a bit dense at times. We need an option under the 'more' option called "Everything Early Years"!
Guest Posted June 12, 2011 Posted June 12, 2011 Right then! Will give it a go, suppose I could use the shredded paper and cut across if all else fails. Thanks maz x
AnonyMouse_8466 Posted June 12, 2011 Posted June 12, 2011 Remember next time and I'll send you a batch of my punchings! They're called chads, I think. Or is that the hole that's left behind?
AnonyMouse_11396 Posted June 12, 2011 Posted June 12, 2011 We have made coloured rice before. Mix with food colouring, then pop it in a low oven to dry out. Have fun.
AnonyMouse_13981 Posted June 12, 2011 Posted June 12, 2011 what about the little circles from a hole punch If you use coloured paper Chicken
Guest Posted June 12, 2011 Posted June 12, 2011 Thank you all, I had a play and ended up with cous cous sprinkles! Just a dash of coulouring, a good mix and left on a tray to dry, have also added pepermint and vanilla. xxx
