2 tab. flour
1 2/3 c. cold water
1 drop clove oil
Put flour in a small saucepan. Mix water into flour, a tablespoon at a time, to make a smooth paste. When all water is mixed in, cook paste over low heat, stirring continually, until it bubbles and thickens. Once it bubbles, keep cooking it for a few minutes, still stirring. You want the flour starches to cook thoroughly, to make the paste stronger. Once the paste is cooked, let it cool. Add a drop of clove oil to help prevent molding. Store unused paste in the fridge.
You can double or triple this recipe as needed, based on the size of your project.
*** I will probably experiment with adding small amounts of basic PVA glue to this paste to make it stronger.
