Flash Post: Sand & Deliver


Brookstone Sand

What It Is: If you’re stuck at your desk for most of this summer but are secretly California Dreamin’, then consider picking up a bottle of this amazing pseudo-sand. Crafted from 98% sand and 2% polymer, it actually has a gummy texture (like Silly Putty) that allows you to mold it into shapes that will actually hold indefinitely without drying out AND without sticking like crazy to your fingers / clothes / furniture, etc. Next time you’re having a rough day, just crack open some ‘Sand’ and start crafting an oasis for yourself.

Who It’s For: Your sun-shy coworker, so they can get a taste of the beach. Your landlocked sibling, so they can remember what it’s like on the shores. Your knows-better-than-to-eat-it niece & nephew, for when the rain is keeping them from the water.

What It Costs: A container of the stuff will set you back $19.99

Where It’s At: Brookstone

How about an extra entry into last week’s Comfort Revolution giveaway? Just leave a comment below and tell me – would you splurge on this moldable sand?

    I doubt very much I would splurge on this

    I think it would be a fun gift for my friend who loves the beach!

  3. Yes! It would make a cool gift!

    Not a chance – if I want to play with sand I head to the beach.

    I would try it. I love the beach and it relaxes me so I’d splurge to see if this had the same affect. It would be a bigger seller if the price was lower I think.

    The only way I’d buy this is during a momentary lapse of my sanity. I’d rather go to the beach to get sand with the added bonus of finding the odd shell or 2.

  7. Julie G.'s avatar Julie G. says:

    Though I think it’s cool, I wouldn’t purchase it.

    I think it would make a great gift but I would not purchase it for myself.

    I have a friend that competes in sand sculpture competitions and this would be totally appropriate for him, but on a small scale of course. Would make a cute stocking stuffer.

    I don’t think this is something I would really be interested in. 🙂

    Comfort Revolution bonus entry: I might splurge on this moldable sand if I could think of someone to gift it to … secret Santa maybe? It’s not too expensive & would make a unique gift.

  12. SueSueper's avatar SueSueper Sue says:

    I think it would be fun for a gift for someone who has everything. So yes I would.

  13. I think I’d get it, play with it a bit myself, and then re-gift it.
