Step 1

Knead your Model Magic® for a bit to make them softer.
TIP: If desired, you can blend together to get a marbled look.

Step 2

Form the dough into the shape of a bird (or any other animal).

Step 3

Embellish the bird with feathers and wiggle eyes by pushing them into the soft dough.

Step 4

To make legs, paint two craft sticks and let dry.

Step 5

Push the craft stick legs into the bottom of the bird.

Step 6
Finally, make a stand from Model Magic® to press the legs into so that the bird will stand. Let dry.
