Here is a way to reuse clear empty glass or plastic containers for decoration. Simply add homemade colored salt.
Supplies:
- container, glass or plastic
- salt (as much as you'd like to fill)
- food coloring
- 4 clear bags (more if you make additional colors)
Steps:
- Gather your supplies.

- Pour salt equally or however much you'd like for each color into bags.

- Add a few drops of food coloring until desired shade. Rub and mix in well with bag closed.
- Make sure each bag has the color spread out evenly (no clumps). Do a "chop" movement with your hand.
- Pour as desired and enjoy ! :)
