Can I use different materials for the jar?

Absolutely! While colored sand and crushed glass are recommended, you can experiment with different materials like faux pearls or beads for varied effects.

How do I ensure the colors don’t mix?

Pouring the sand slowly and keeping each layer about an inch thick can help maintain distinct layers. Using a funnel will also aid in keeping the pouring controlled.

Can I include other decorative items?

Yes! Feel free to get creative with your decor. Adding items like pieces of driftwood or starfish can enhance the coastal vibe of your Ocean Jar.
