Ingredients:

Directions:
2. stir for 1 minute. Grains of salt will get smaller but should not dissolve. 3. Add the flour, stir until water is absorbed. To color the dough, add 1/4 cup liquid tempera paint(or whatever you like) to the water before adding it to the flour. 4. Knead for several minutes -- it's ready to use when texture is smooth and pliable. 5. When you have made your designs, bake dough on a cookie sheet at 325 F (or even lower and slower) for about two hours. Bake until dough is hard on all surfaces, and thickest parts should seem solid. Dry items too fast and it WILL crack. 6. Wrap unused dough tightly or place in a plastic bag or covered container. Ideally, use the dough within 24 hours. 7. Paint or use permanent markers to color your creations after they're baked. Then to protect them from moisture in the air, apply a coat of lacquer. |
