Requisitos

2. Why is it important to have clean hands and use hand lotion while working with bread dough?

The dough will pick up any dirt you may have on your hands. The lotion keeps your hands from sticking to the dough, making it easier to handle.

4. What type of finish do you use to protect and give a glossy appearance?

After your art has dried and has been painted, you can coat it with a clear gloss finish such as Envirotex Lite. This will give it a clean glossy look and will help protect it. Clear gloss finishes should be available at your local art store.

5. Make at least two different flowers with leaves and arrange into a container of your choice.

The best model for a flower is the real thing. Pick up a few flowers before you begin this honor and have your Pathfinders study them. Have them consider the shape of each individual petal, the calyx, the stem, and the leaves and encourage them to reproduce that in dough. If live flowers are not available, try working from photographs.

6. Make one of the following using tinted dough:

a. Sculpture arrangement

A sculpture arrangement is a small scene on a base. Roll out a piece of dough to an even thickness and cut it into a defined shape for the base. Then make miniature models to place in the scene. Here are a few ideas:

• Dinner plate with food, or a place setting with plate, knife, forks, glass, etc.
• Wishing well.
• Person in a chair reading a book.
• Praying hands (better if they lie flat than if they stand erect).
• Cars at an intersection.
• Dog and doghouse.
• Or whatever you think of!

b. Small wall plaque

For this, you may wish to roll a piece of dough out into a flat sheet with even thickness, and then use a knife (or a cookie cutter) to cut out the plaque. Then you can use a different color of dough and apply it to the surface of the plaque to make the design of your choosing.

7. Make one of the following:

a. Kitchen refrigerator magnet

You will need strong glue and magnets. Magnets are available in craft stores or at hobby shops (including Radio Shack). A five-minute epoxy may be the best type of glue for this project, as it will adhere well to both the magnet and the dough. Press the magnet into the dough while it is still wet, but remove it before painting. You can glue it into the cavity after painting. It may help to add a coat of clear gloss finish after attaching the magnet, as this will help hold the magnet in place.

b. Pin

You can use regular safety pins or buy blank pins at a craft store. The blanks sold at craft stores resemble the pins Pathfinders receive when they are invested in their AY classes, or the pins that are traded at camporees, except the display side is totally blank and smooth.

c. Choice of something you would like to make

This is your opportunity to show your creativity. Let your imagination run free.
