Painting The Paper Cement Clay Toad
The paper cement clay toad is all painted, sealed, and glued to the leaf, and he's now ready to go outside for our year-long experiment.
We received a ton of votes about what to call the new recipe, and "paper cement clay" was a clear winner. People liked it because it says exactly what it is, so that's what I'll be calling it from now on. But remember - it's still experimental until we've had a chance to see how well it holds up through both summer and winter weather.
