Tips to help one create awesome rice art

1. Dye the rice where needed. Put rice the you want to dye in separate bowls to cover for the different dyes. Follow this link to learn how to dye rice. It will take approximately 30 minutes for the rice to dry. Food dyes are readily available in supermarkets and food stores.
2. Make an outline of what you want to create. Once the rice has dried, then you can fill up your outline.
3. Once you are happy with your work, take a picture of it and then post it on the Dawaat Facebook page.
