Synopses & Reviews
The technique of modeling dough has been known for many centuries from ancient Egypt to 19th century Germany. The projects in this book reflect these cultural roots concentrating on traditional designs and decorations. The basic techniques are simple, start with a shape, such as a heart, cut from rolled-out dough, emboss it, decorate it with relief designs, bake and paint it, then thread it on twine to make a popular Scandanavian Christmas decoration. There are over 20 attractive objects to make in total from a traditional wheatsheaf to a garland of clowns for a child's bedroom.
