• Mixing Bowl
• Spoon
• Paint
• Paint Brush
• String or Ribbon
• Straw
• Wax paper

Steps:

1. Mix, Flour Salt and water in a bowl
2. Mix it well until it is like a cookie dough.  If it is too crumbly, add a little more water.  If it is too sticky add a little more flour.
3. Roll dough into little balls about 3/4 inch in diameter
4. Press the straw through the middle carefully to make a hole.
5. Make 3-6 beads and then place on wax paper to dry
