Homemade Bakeable Clay

BAKE – ABLE SALT CLAY Combine:
2 Cups Flour
1 Cup Salt
1 Cup Cold Water (may need a little more)
2 Tablespoons cooking oil
Optional: Food coloring (color dough before baking)
Knead well until you can form a smooth ball.
 
Then roll out the clay with a rolling pin and cut shapes with cookie cutters, or mold into shapes by hand.

Place on a cookie sheet lined with foil and bake for 1 hour at 300 degrees – or until the shapes are hard.


Paint with acrylic paint and then finish with a coat of clear spray paint or shellac to make them last a long time.
Ideas: Before baking make a hole at one end for key chains and jewelry. Make ornaments, refrigerator magnets, animals or anything you can imagine.
