Doll Size S'more Fixin's


So I decided that it would be best (at least for my schedule) to give you the clay portion in two parts. I know this drags the project out a lot longer but it does keep the individual videos shorter and frankly I just didn't have enough time to get any more done this week.



Making marshmallows is super easy just roll a little rounded cylinder of clay. I prefer the Model Magic by Crayola for this because it is easy to work with, it air dries and it stays just a bit soft so you get the feel of the real thing.

My real marshmallows were just a bit over 1” in both height and diameter so I decided that a measurement of 3/8” would be fine for the doll size ones. You have some lee way on these just try to get them close to the same size. Keep some of the clay (well wrapped) for next week when we are going to be making some on roasting sticks.

For the graham crackers you just need a light tan color of polymer clay. Since we have the paper version from the printable set we can use that to size our clay ones. Then texture and brush with some brown chalk and bake. Be sure to make some of the half size graham crackers if you are going to be making the s'mores next week. For those we will need the baked half crackers as a base.

The candy bars are again sized by using the paper printable ones. I used a double pointed knitting needle to make the typical markings on the top of mine. Bake them off and they are done. And because we used the printable chocolate bars to size our the clay ones can fit in the wrappers we made last week. Save some of the same clay (unbaked) for the s'mores next week.


So wasn't that fun and easy. Be sure to come back next week to see how we make the finished s'mores.
