deer heart
my heart did skip a beat or two
when I found out I could
tint my own sprinkles
{yes.....tint my own sprinkles.....happy dance x100}
all you need are white cake sprinkles
{called Jimmies}
and powder food colours
put your white Jimmies in a glass jar
{I like using a glass jar so you can see the magic}
add some powder food colour
and shake
more colour = an intenser shade
I am sooooo addicted
my dear heart is very happy
about this marvelous discovery
{xox}
thank you for your San Francisco help in my last post
all your lovely spots are written down in my notebook
I hope to visit many
happy sprinkle colouring

Hello Koralee~I've wanted to attempt this for some time. May I ask where you found the jimmies and food coloring powder?
Sweet wishes,
Sara
NO WAY !!!!!!! I am so gonna get myself some Jimmies and colored powder ....... Tastes almost as delish as they look!
Oooh, that's really good to know. I've had trouble sometimes looking for a specific color of sprinkles and not finding it at the stores around me. Thank, thank you for sharing this. It will definitely come in handy. Lots of hugs to you, sweet lady. Xoxo
So lovely..there will be many many of your followers buying and dyeing "jimmies"....just to get that perfect sprinkle color.

You'll have to tell us where we would find white sprinkles and colored powder - sure looks fun! I do hope you have dinner in Chinatown and that you have Prawns with Honey Walnuts! Have fun! ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
Wow, Koralee!
You are a dear heart for sharing your amazing ideas with us!
I'll have to look for powdered food coloring ~ Your sprinkle colors are going to make lots of smiles!

LOL!!! whatever the name -- I LOVE IT!!!! but every thing you present is picture perfect...thanks for the big smile this early morning : ) (hugs)!!!
KORALEE! I have never ever heard of or seen powdered food coloring, but I must RUN OUT TO see if I have just missed it! This is a great idea to make MY OWN SHADE OF AQUA, I HOPE! Wonderful idea and isn't it fun that the little things can put such a huge smile on our faces?
LOVE LOVE LOVE MY DEAR and may you have wonderful weather for your 4th and 5th grade event! We are expected to have "SEVERE" weather tonight!!!!!! PRAY FOR US!
LOVE Anita

Happy new week,
Madelief x
how cool! I never knew you could do this. Definitely gonna try this out!
Oh what a great ideas! And we do love sprinkles at our house -- this just adds to our joy :)
That is super fun Koralee!!
I've been wanting to buy some new food coloring (for macarons) but now that I know I can dye my own sprinkles, I'm not going to wait any longer!
Lately, I've been dying a lot of fabrics/ribbons with RIT and I'm obsessed! It's funny how little things like that can totally rejuvenate a person's creativity!
Hope your week is going well.
