Traditional Clay
1 1/2 cup baking soda
2/3 cups cornstarch
2 cup warm water

Mix the ingredients together in a pan. Heat over a low heat until it is thick. Stir constantly. Place mixture on a pastry board or bread board to cool. As soon as it is cool enough to handle knead well. At this time you can add in tempera paint or food coloring if you choose. Roll out flat. Use cookie cutters, or cut shapes freehand. Place unused dough in a plastic bag. It dries fast. Paint your finished projects and brush with shellac or clear nail polish to preserve.
