Instructions

  • Draw the picture on the bottom of the glass dish.
  • Allow the picture to dry for about a minute.
  • Slowly pour the water into the dish. Do not pour the water directly onto the picture. Wait for the picture to lift off the bottom of the dish before moving the container around. Gently move the container to watch your picture float!

Helpful tips

  • Make sure every part of your picture is connected when drawing. If it isn't connected, it is more likely to fall apart before it floats.
  • Let the picture dry for a minute or so before adding water.
  • It doesn't matter if the water is warm or cold, but do not pour the water directly onto the picture. Pour it off to the side then wait for the picture to lift off the bottom of the dish. Once it is floating, then you can gently start moving the dish to watch your picture float.
  • Have fun!
