How to make it
- Mix all ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat.
- Stir until smooth.
- Remove dough from the pan and knead until blended smooth.
- If you want colors, add food coloring or a pinch of Kool-Aid now until the desired color is made.
- Let cool.
- Now to make it aromatic, I roll the dough into a ball and push a hole in it with my thumb.
- I then add a few drops of an essential oil (usually 1-3 to start) and knead the dough thoroughly.
- Sniff.
- Keep doing this until you get the aroma you are looking for.
