Are you an artist looking for a new outlet? Perhaps you’re a kid looking for something fun to do. Or an adult with time on their hands (an interesting expression - does time have weight too?). Whatever your reason, here’s a great idea to get you started. Maybe you could even try building the Taj Mahal out of clay! Give it a try!

• 2 Cups Flour
• 1 Cup Salt
• 1 Cup Water
• 1 1/2 Tablespoons Vegetable Oil
• Wax Paper
• Paint
• 1 Mixing Bowl
• Cookie Sheet

1. Mix the salt and flour together in the mixing bowl.
2. Slowly add the water and oil to the bowl and mix together until you get a smooth consistency.
3. Tear off a large piece of wax paper and pull off a chunk of the dough.
4. Shape the dough into any design that you want…use your imagination. Just try not to make the shapes too thick.
5. Place your creations on a cookie sheet and cook in an oven at 250 degrees for about 45 minutes-1 hour.
6. When they are done, remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
7. You can then paint the objects if desired.
