In addition too-Re: Jewelry

[Kaisenji]

Just to add to what mcdee has gifted us with-you can also make jewelry
out of baking clay which is extremely easy to make.  Once it is baked,
it can be painted in a zillion colors and even made to look like real
beads and what not. I remember making figures for the x-mas
tree...then trying to eat that very salty dough.
