Guest Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 Not sure about that, I have made own by mixing pva glue and water works quiet well. I know flour and water will set hard but not sure if it woulnt go moudly? Good luck, hope its really messy ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 Thought you could use any cold water paste, as long as it does not contain fungicide as wall paper paste does Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 where would i find cold water paste? I wanted it a bit thicker than watered down PVA, let the kids really get their hands into it. I guess the flour might go mouldy-wonder how long before it does though? jo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
