Rolling Oven-Bake Clay
Working on a nonstick baking mat, place oven-bake clay between 2 thin wooden slabs; use these as runners for the rolling pin. Roll out the clay, keeping the edges of the pin on the slabs, until it is of uniform thickness, about 3/16 inch.
Iron-On Transfer Ornaments
Choose from delft and lusterware clip art, including these and other images. Download and print onto iron-on transfer paper using an ink-jet printer. Roll out white oven-bake clay, as described above, and cut out ornament with a cookie or biscuit cutter the same size as the transfer image. Bake ornament according to manufacturer's instructions. Once cool, use the ornament to trace around your image; cut out. Place image facedown on ornament, lay a paper towel over the paper backing, and iron over it (do not use steam). Let cool, then peel off backing. Get instructions on how to embellish lusterware ornaments with mica powder.
