  • I got 50,000 conversation heart candies. I was going to make them a Valentine's Day DIY craft sculpture but that wasn't Outrageous enough. Sooo...I crushed the hearts. I got a chak-pur. And I attempted the Tibetan art of mandala sand painting. Did I achieve zen? Did I truly grasp non-attachment? Am I basically a buddhist monk now? Yes, of course and also join my Patreon!

    I feel like you could do a whole new design or five with all the spare sugar sand or possibly turn it into different coloured fondant icing and use it as sugar clay for sculptures! For the unblendered ones maybe making a mosaic with the tiny pick up lines though the lack of diversity in colours will make it a very pastel design.

    Awesome sugar sand art aside, I'm impressed you managed to cut a sheet of ply in half with a fricking dremel!

    First, amazing dedication to your craft! It turned out amazing! Second I think you should take the leftover crushed hearts and do those old school sand art bottles! for putting in that much effort people should be able to put in the effort to watch the full video!!! :D

    That tube thing you can find in East LA, but they use a different kind of powder in it.

    You are so ridiculously talented at literally whatever you put your hand to. You're my hero! I'd love to see you cover the wood with glue and next time you make a sand art it sticks to the wood and you can hang it as art.

    Should look into a rock tumbler if you plan on reducing stuff to a powder in the future.
