Dying Rice

[amylouise867]

Hello you beautiful people

I am getting ready to make a christmas themed sensory box/bin and I want to dye quite a large amount of rice green to cover all the base.

Can you give me some advise? As only ever done a small quantity before and it took ages and ages to fully dry.

Thanks everyone

I have always dyed my rice and then left it in a single layer on some trays in a warm space and it usually dries really quickly. Perhaps you could dry them on a low heat in the oven but not sure what that might do to the rice!

I read it as drying rice and was wondering how to dry it. was going to suggest leaving it out somewhere......Then realised it was dying rice as in colouring it....

Was it dying as in colouring or was it on its last legs lol

dry it in a thin layer low set oven.

Lol - didn't even realise lol

That's great though left it on a few trays in front of the fire and two trays dried out real quick.

That's for the advise!!
My rice survived lol lol
