- Usage:
  1. With the measuring tool standing vertically up inside the glass bottle, add hot water into the bottle until the water level reaches the marking on the measuring tool.
  2. Pour all the contents in the "crystal powder" bag into water in the bottle.
  3. Stir using the measuring tool until the powder is fully dissolved.
  4. Take out the measuring tool. Wait for 3 minutes.
  5. While you wait, make a wish.
  6. Sink the "crystal seed" into the bottle.
  7. Seal the bottle with the original plug.
  8. After precisely 24 hours, remove the plug on the bottle (this is important).
  9. Wait until the "crystals" grow above the water level. After that, drain water and you are done growing yourself some crystals.

Pros: It's a fun way of spending your week watching crystal grow.
I bought this for my wife as a little present. apparently she liked it, and thinks it's more fun than uh...paint...
the bottle is quite nice

Cons: it takes a bit of time to grow. i'm not sure if it has to do with the PRECISE opening of the bottle at 24 hours or something...

Other Thoughts: i could grow crystals myself by pouring super saturated solutions of salt with some vinegar on a stone, but it wouldn't look as nice.
maybe i'll try growing msg crystals instead, they are long and slender

Bottomline: not very useful, but makes a good decoration
