Does the sand already come in the hourglass? I am looking for one for a sand ceremony at my wedding.

Yes, this is a complete full one hour glass. I work on antique clocks and bough this for a display. They also sell just the sand for these iof needed and you can buy just the glass sealed with sand and not the base for half the price. Hope this helps out, glen~!

Yes, it comes intact and ready for gifting. Mine was a gift also and they absolutely loved it. Everyone that has seen it has commented on its elegance. I would highly recommend purchasing it. It was the perfect size for his work desk. Elegant and timeless heirloom-like piece of memory.

Yes, I am sorry the sand is in this hour glass so I assume this will not suit your purpose... It is a beautiful piece and I put a brass engraved plate on it to complete as a wonderful gift. It read "When I am by your side time stands still"... SO maybe something to think about as a future anniversary gift.. Best of luck with your search.Danielle

Yes the sand is already in the hourglass. Not removable unless you break the glass either.

Sorry, I don't know. We were using it for sparklers and had sand in the bottom of it..didn't have any problems.

I do not think so because the sand sticks together too much. This would make it difficult to draw in. Additionally, after you take your hand away from it, the sand continues to shift slightly. You probably want regular sand.

On mine there is a little bit of red sand. It's charcoal, grey, white and a little bit of red. It's actually very pretty.

Definitely before. Sanding will aid in pieces fitting well together. I recommend fine sandpaper with a gentle stroke. This wood is almost like cardboard. This furniture has incredible potential, but only for one with patient hands. Success is found in the one doing the work, not the product. Meaning the product is only as good as the user. Good luck. This stuff is cute if assemblied properly.

Yes. I bought the perfect holder at bad,bath and beyond. It's wood and it is an elevated tilted circle on a base. They sell them to go with their stone monogram coasters. They come in brown but I painted mine black.

It does not come with sand, but you can go to any pool place to purchase the sand. I believe it takes around 5 bags. Just make sure not to film the sand to the top. The instructions lay it out very clearly for you though. Hope this helps

Just peel off one section at a time and pour sand over. With my daughter I have a small metal cake pan that I lay the picture in so she can pour the sand. I use a kitchen funnel to recollect the sand. She gets to do more of the work that way and enjoys it more.

Ours seems to be sanded very well. It's smooth and we haven't noticed any splinters. It's still expensive for what you're getting though.

hi -Ive been looking online as well. I found a thread on conceptart.org and it looks like the clear replacement IS a smooth one. I'm actually about to order one, if you want to wait a week or so, ill report back to confirm if this is true ;pit's a lead at least, so im gonna see if it's true or not

Unfortunately it isn't. It will fill about an inch maybe 1 1/2" in the bottom of an inside sand table that is about 16 x 20". It is great sand, feels really nice and isn't dusty, and will buy it again for that purpose. Unfortunately, it would take many boxes for an outside sand box. I would recommend play sand from a home improvement store for that purpose. Much cheaper $5/bag and in 50lb bags.

Mine came with a sandbag holder. I personally just put a can of soup in mine, since I had no sand laying around. For set up like others watched YouTube videos.

YES! And I did get free shipping. This is so much high quality sand for the price! I was really impressed. I own a daycare and price is an important factor in every purchase. I was expecting to pay twice what I did for sand. I have the Step 2 Sand and Water Activity Table, which holds 20 pounds of sand and 2 gallons of water. I filled the entire thing with the sand from this one purchase. Granted, neither side was filled to capacity, but it was the perfect amount and quite full, I wouldn't have wanted to (and didn't) add anymore. I'm not sure why other responses seem to contradict mine, and maybe they had a different experience, but I was so happy I wrote a review for this sand and seller, which I rarely take the time to do. I feel I should add this: I read some reviews that complained of the high price of shipping. One woman said she received hers in four flat rate shipping boxes, the price of which came out to be half of what she paid for the sand, which is outrageous. My sand came in one box containing two large bags of sand. I'm not sure why the shipping isn't consistent, but you'll know immediately upon ordering if you're shipping cost is too high. You can always cancel your order before it goes through and buy it through another seller. If I were you I'd give it a try though. It's worth it!

NO, it is not.. The sand is super cool but won't keep the shape the same way..

Yes! We have it and it is perfect for the sand box! My kids use it all the time. :)

Agree with previous comments. It's already made. If I could have custom ordered the hair differently, I would have as well since my hair is dark and my groom's hair is light. It's still a cute topper though.
