clay elf

I made this and others in 1980 from homemade flour, salt and water 'clay'.
Baked in the oven, painted with tempura and sealed with urethane. \
I'm amazed each year as I open the storage box, looking just as I made them!

How wonderful to have these ornaments looking so good after 30 years. And cleverly made too!

We have a little tree in our bedroom full of these kind of ornaments the children made last year. Treasures!
