STEP 1 1. First get a BIG bowl! 2. Measure out flour and salt. 3. Add water, but only about a 1/4 of a cup at a time till desired consistency. Kneading constantly...this could take up to 10min.
Step 2 so you should have dough that looks like this. also you have the option to add food coloring.
STEP 3 Set your oven for 200 degrees. leave them in for 2-4 hours. if they start to brown make sure to cover w/foil or take them out! OR if you don't want to use your oven you can leave out your creations to air dry. depending on the size, this could take 2 hours to 2-3 days.
STEP 4 So once your let your creations cool and they are completely dry, they are hard as a rock! you can paint them, i used acrylics, watercolors, and if you want a gloss finish, just apply a coat of Mod-podge!
