ABSTRACT:
An additive substantially improves the adhesion of ordinary sand. The additive includes gelatin, flour or starch. The additive may also include salt, colored sand, and/or white sand. In use, one adds water to the additive, forming the additive into a homogeneous, sticky paste. Then, one combines the paste with ordinary sand, again mixing the paste with the sand to produce a homogeneous mixture. The result is a sand-based composition having improved adhesion, and which therefore can be used to make semi-permanent sand castles or other sculptures.
