Ingredients:

• 6 pieces of day-old, ordinary white bread
• 3 Teaspoons White Household Glue
• 2 Teaspoons Water
• Parchment Paper

Directions:

• Remove crusts from bread, and cut into small pieces.

• In a large mixing bowl, add water and glue to the bread pieces. Mix with your hands until a dough forms. When it's ready, the mixture should be the consistency of pie dough. Roll out or pat out until flat on parchment paper. Cut into shapes with cookie cutters and set on a drying rack or roll into beads. Let the bead dry on a toothpick to form holes in the middle and then paint them with acrylic paints.
