Oven Flour Clay Recipe

Instructions for making clay using flour, salt, and water.

* 2 Cups Flour
* 1 Cup Salt
* 2 Tbsp Vegetable Oil
* 3/4 - 1 Cup Water

Instructions:
Mix together flour and salt. Add the oil and then slowly add the water and stir until you get a nice clay consistency. Once completely mixed, make into the desired shapes. Bake in a 250 degree oven for approximately 1 hour. This will vary depending on how thick you creations are. One hint, do not make shapes too thick or they will crack with baking.

A variation on this recipe is using 4 Cups of Flour, 1 cup of Salt, and 1 1/2 Cups of Water. Your creations can be baked at 300 degrees for about an hour.

For a golden appearance, paint your creations with egg yolk before you put it in the oven. If you like color, you can paint them with acrylic paints after they are baked and cooled. These can make great Christmas ornament.
