Step 1
Mix the kaolin clay and powder colorant in a mixing bowl with your hands. (I like Bramble Berry neon pigments best, but any oxide pigment will work.)
-
Step 2
In a smaller bowl, mix the arrowroot powder and water together.
-
Step 3
Microwave the smaller bowl for three seconds in order to thicken the powder and water into a paste.
-
Step 4
Using gloves, add witch hazel to the clay mixture and combine well.
-
Step 5
Add the arrowroot mixture to the clay mixture and combine with your hands until you get a clay-like consistency. If it’s too crumbly, try adding tiny amounts of witch hazel until you get the right consistency.
-
Step 6
Shape the mixture to resemble a stick of chalk and lay it out to dry overnight (for about 12 hours).
