Preparation

Step 1

DIRECTIONS

Mix together the flour and salt.
Add the oil, and then slowly add the water until you reach a nice clay consistency that you like. If you want the clay colored, this is the time to add the food coloring! Also, don’t forget to make a hole, before baking, where you can string a ribbon through to hang your creation.
Mold into whatever shapes that you want. If using egg yolk brush it on now.
Pre-heat the oven to 250 degrees.
Bake creations in the oven for 1 hour. Times can vary depending on the thickness of your creation. Don’t forget projects that are too thick may crack while baking!
Let cool before painting with water based acrylics!
