    I've used the recipe on this thread.

    I wouldn't dry it out in the microwave though as mine broke after I did

    Miffy xx
    Keep smiling!

    I made some last week with the following recipe

    2 cups of plain flour
    2 cups of salt
    1 cup of water

    Just put the flour and salt in bowl and slowly mix in the water.

    When i was then rolling the dough and breaking pieces off I would flour the table and flour my hands. If the mixture was still too sticky i would keep dipping my hands in flour until i could the roll the mixture out without it being too sticky.

    I then put oven on 100 degrees C and left in oven for 2 hours

    I painted them yesterday and they look fab
