I am a New Englander, a Southerner, my own woman, Rex's daughter, a quivering mass of contradictions. Nothing here means any more or less than you want it to mean. This and a buck fifty will get you coffee. But it's me. And I really like that.
I am so going to go buy this over the weekend with gift cards Jadette got for her birthday. It's for her, of course. Yep. I'm just gonna go with that. It's for Jadette.
In a strange cooinkiedink, I saw a t.v. show that featured how to make your own:
Step1 - Choose a mold for your sidewalk chalk. You can use toilet paper or paper towel rolls (cut in half) for larger sticks or ice cube trays, candy molds or popsicle molds for smaller ones.
Step2 - Mix equal parts tap water with plaster of Paris and stir together until smooth. The mixture will still be thick.
Step3 - Divide the mixture into parts depending upon the number of colors you want to add. Add powdered tempera paint to your sidewalk chalk until you reach the desired color.
Step4L - et colored batches stand for a few minutes and then pour them into molds.
Step5 - Allow the sidewalk chalk molds air dry completely. This could take a few hours to a few days depending upon the size mold you are using.

Anonymous ~ I am on my way. These look cool enough by themselves. To play with them with the Grill Master... The Poo doesn't even need to be there. ;)
Jaded ~ Of course it is. Of course.
Zoooom ~ Oooooooo! Thank you! Hee hee hee
Cracker Lilo ~ I'm right there with you. Luckily, I never stopped having a happy childhood, just took it with me as I happened to add numbers to my age.
We normally buy all this kind of stuff for Juno. But we have no sidewalks, pavement or concrete. SO we'll wait to see if they're as good as the commercial. Let us know.
Have you noticed that they leave SHADOWS in the commercials?!? SHADOWS!!! hmmm... *must believe... it was on t.v.!*
I should get this for the fledglings... actually I should get a set for Cougar too... after watching The Last Mimzy, he'll spend his days drawing 3D mandalas!!
Those are Pobble Thoughts. That and a buck fifty will get you coffee.

Have it. Use it. I'm a firm believer that it's never too late to have a happy childhood!
Jaded, if you have to "help," a lot, I'm sure everyone here totally understands! :-)

Every time I see sidewalk chalk, my first thought is "I want some of that", then I start to think of my aching back!~
Getting old is not at all amusing dear.... get out there, get that chalk and start having some fun!
While you're at it, write dondon009 in purple chalk and surround it with a big heart!
I love you dear.........
Don~
I would absolutely love to get this stuff, go out in the middle of the road in our subdivision and give our neighbors something to fuss about. :)
I'll take the cuppajoe too!
What, two dimensions isn't good enough for kids these days? Bah-humbug!
now.... lemme see....where can I find some?
I just saw a commercial here in Boston for the 3D caulk. It looks like fun and it must mean spring is here even though its flippen 45 degrees today.
Oh wow...that looks like a blast! Of course, I'd want to color the whole driveway and ride my bike! Yeah, I'm eleven!
feel free to send some to the princess kitty for her birthday and we can tell you all about how cool they are.
That.
Looks.
Cool!
