Super easy way to make clay!

Postby Ravencry » Sat Jul 10, 2010 1:08 pm

All you need is 1 C. flour
1 C. salt
and 1/2 C. water!

Thats it!
If its too dry, add a little bit of water. If its too moist, add some flour!
Dries overnight so no need to bake! Makes beautiful runes and offering dishes, especially if you paint them! Have fun and make some stuff!

Oh wow, this is fantastic! Thank you for sharing!

You know, I really believe in living a minimalistic life, and it's things like this that really make fun, creativity and holidays inexpensive.

Little recipes like this are fab!

I drew the pentacle on there myself. The clay can be drawn on with pencil, and the pencil can be erased.

Be careful, when it gets too thin or too thick, it tends to crack. I guess you just have to find the happy medium. (My altar pentacle cracked in half because of this D: ) It also warps a little, so you have to make sure that its on a really flat area and you dont flip it too early. This clay is moodier than me! (thats saying a lot)

I think I got the thickness right. I had to actually cut the full recipe in half as it made a lot of clay and I did not need a lot to start with. Next up, some homeade runes I think. I have a set of bought runes but it might be nice to have my own set of homeade runes. Thank you again, this recipe is awesome! Oh I forgot, does this dry completly overnight?

Nearly. It takes about a day and a half. For runes, it takes a day.

Good to know, thank you. Would you recommend carving the pentacle on now while it is still moist or painting it after the fact?

Painting it on afterward for this reason: unfortunately, when you carve it, you get the grainy salt look, and crumbles really easily. When you make the surface smooth, you can pencil on your design and erase when you need to.

Thanks for this, I think I'll try it. :) Is your mortar and pestle hard and usable? I'd really like to try to make me one. :)
