I started "play" with dough when I wanted to save money for my baby Baptism and I made all the favours by myself (shaped, painted and varnished).
It takes a while because the dough must be hard before painting or mould can appear, and anytime you paint the dough get wet again. Also you need at least 4 hands of varnish.
These are parchments, i put a blue ribbon to hold the tag and also allow people to hang it. On each parchment, there is a rose. I made 25 parchments for the Baptism of my son and took not less then 10 days.
Other different parchments with different flowers and colours.
