Prepare crumbly materials to fill the frame. You can use:
•
Food products (semolina, millets, buckwheat, poppy seeds, macaroni, salt, etc.);
•
Sand;
•
Petty things (buttons, beads, etc.)
Warning: the material that you use should be clean and safe for use.
Pour the materials into the frame and create your own picture (pic. 4). For pouring process can be used spoons,
scoops, pouring in a stream between your fingers or straight from the material package / container.

When the frame is filled, take the funnel off (pic.5) and carefully clean the leftover of crumbly material from the
upper part of the glass (pic.6). Put the upper part of the creativity frame on (pic 7).

Warning: if you do not clean the glass top from the crumbly material, the upper part of the creativity frame will
not put on tightly.
The created picture can be placed on any flat, nonmoving surface. It is also possible to attach hooks / hangers
on
the frame side parts and hang “Colour dunes”
on the wall.
Tips
By pouring different quantities of different types of crumbly materials,
various forms and textures can be created. And at the same you can enjoy
the view of colour combinations. For natural coloured paintings we
recommend to use home supplies such as: salt (white colour), corn flour
(yellow colour), poppy seeds (black colour), buckwheat (brown colour) and
etc. To get brighter colours you can, e.g. mix semolina with coloured chalk
powder.
To make your creativity frame exceptional and unique, you can also
write or stick a greeting, dedication or congratulations on the glass.
By using additional tools such as brushes, paddles and etc., the
user can inject them between the frame glasses, mix the crumbly
material, in that way creating interesting patterns and shapes.
A coloured sheet of paper, placed between (or behind) the glasses can serve as a
background of the picture. Then even by pouring a small amount of crumbly materials
inside, the picture will still look finished.
