Recipe - Clay

1 cup Cornstarch
2 cup Salt
Enough water to make a thick
paste

Stir while cooking, and cook until stiff. Allow this to cool, and cover
with a damp cloth until ready to use. Coloring may be added before cooking
or when molded; let dry, then paint with water color.

HOW TO CARE FOR CLAY: Clay can always be broken up, dampened, and used
again even after it has been painted. When it has been used, but has not
been allowed to become hard, poke holes in the clay with your finger or
with a pencil, fill these with water (to restore the original dampness) and
place in an airtight crock or in a galvanized pail with a tight cover. A
damp cloth placed over the clay will help to keep it moist until the next
time.
