Birds
Step 1
Roll the dough into a 1-inch ball.
Step 2
Shape the dough with your hands as shown above.
Step 3
Make a slot by pushing a toothpick up into the bottom of the clay. Make sure the front flap of the slot is shorter than the back flap to prevent the bird from tipping backward.
Step 4
Fit your molded dough on the edge of a thick cup; keep molding until you get a nice birdlike shape.
Step 5
Use a toothpick to shape the beak.
