Silken Sands by Devin Knight

A novel and flashy effect that your audience hasn't seen before. This was a limited release a few years ago. Now you can make it up yourself in less than an hour, using items found in most of the larger box stores. NO TOOLS of any kind required to assemble!

Effect: The performer shows a metal bowl to be empty. He then puts in three large handfuls of different colored sands, red, blue, and yellow; saying from these base colors, all colors can be made. Magician then pours a quart of water into the bowl and mixes the sand and water with a wooden chopstick. He takes the stick and begins to fling water into the air. Suddenly, the flung water visibly turns into dry silks in mid-air! After a large production of silks is made, the water is poured back into the pitcher. THE WATER IS CLEAR, the sand has vanished and the bowl is seen to be empty.

This effect has proven to be a real audience pleaser. Suitable for both adults and children. The novel appearance of the dry silks in the air, as water is apparently being flicked will get ahs from your audience. This effect used to sell for over $100.00. These directions will teach you how to easily make it up for a fraction of the original cost. Once made up, you use the SAME SAND OVER AND OVER. There are no replacements to buy making this effect very cost effective.
