Clay Recipe

= Air-Dry Clay =

What You Need:

 * 2 cups baking soda
 * 1 cup cornstarch plus more for kneading
 * 1 ½ cups water
 * Small Pot
 * Plastic Wrap (Optional)
 * Airtight Container

Steps:

 * In a small pot, mix together the baking soda and cornstarch. Stir in the water until completely blended.
 * Place pot over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly for 10 to 15 minutes until the clay begins to form. Remove from heat and continue stirring until the mixture becomes a sticky but soft dough.
 * Allow the dough to cool to the touch.
 * Place dough on a surface coated with additional cornstarch. Begin kneading the clay adding more cornstarch as needed until the clay becomes smooth and the tacky feeling is gone.
 * To store, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and place in an airtight container.
 * To dry, place shapes on a drying rack. If needed, flip shapes over after one side has dried. Depending on the thickness of the object, the clay may take up to 3 days to dry completely.
