Are you an artist looking for a new outlet? Perhaps you’re a kid looking for something fun to do. Or an adult with time on their hands (an interesting expression - does time have weight too?).
Whatever your reason, here’s a great homemade clay idea to get you started. Maybe you could even try building the Taj Mahal out of clay! Give it a try!
Recipe:
* 2 Cups Flour * 1 Cup Salt * 1 Cup Water * 1 1/2 Tablespoons Vegetable Oil * Wax Paper * Paint * 1 Mixing Bowl * Cookie Sheet
Mix the salt and flour together in the mixing bowl.
Slowly add the water and oil to the bowl and mix together until you get a smooth consistency.
Tear off a large piece of wax paper and pull off a chunk of the dough.
Shape the dough into any design that you want…use your imagination. Just try not to make the shapes too thick.
Place your creations on a cookie sheet and cook in an oven at 250 degrees for about 45 minutes-1 hour.
When they are done, remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
