Place dough in another plastic bag. Knead dough until smooth and pliable.










To color dough, add paint a few drops at a time and mix or wait until dough is dry to paint.

i made roses and other flower adornments with this recipe years ago and still have them, they never faded, they are incredibly durable, as strong and delicate as porcelain.
