List of Ingredients










6 tablespoons salt
6 tablespoons bluing liquid
6 tablespoons water
1 tb ammonia
food coloring







Recipe

Combine salt, bluing, water and ammonia. Pour over small pieces of rock or charcoal in a shallow GLASS OR CHINA bowl. Drip food coloring on top, if desired, to grow colored crystals. You can also get thin sticks or matches that you stick upright between the coals for crystals to grow on.Crystals will begin to grow soon. Add water occasionally to keep crystals growing. You'll probably want to supervise pretty closely. This one is entertaining for grown ups also
