    cntd
    method
    mix together all above items in an aluminium kadai
    mixing on slow flame.cook all the ingredients.
    after thickening remove from flame nd keep aside for 1/2 hr wrapped in a plastic cover.then as per requirement add camel student oil colours to it
    nd make flowers leaves toys etc
    after completion put varnish
    whole process must be done carefully
    if there is diff in quantities
    u dont get correct consistency
    nd the dough shold be kept air tight in seperate plastic paper for each colour
    u have 2 take little by little 2 mqke flowers etc
    u can make small n beautiful differet types of flowers
    i ll try to post my creations very soon
