- Hi Gracie,
About not cooking the paste I came up with the idea when I had to do wedding give aways and I had to do a lot of paste so I decide to do without cooking. I use 1/2 cup fevicol (white glue), 1 cup corn flour, 1 tsp vaseline, 1 tsp glecerine and a preservative. just mix all together if u feel its sticky add some more corn flower, if u feel it is too dry add some more fevicol and mix.

- Thanks for your compliment. I would advise "Try, Try, Try again", keep trying U will get sucess. Spread by word of mouth, initially present your not to cost but creative things to family members, friends, friends of friends, teacher of your children, any member of the parish likewise to get attention. Once someone starts appreciating, ask them to put in words to their families and friends, show that U R ready to cater to their needs of your things on cost to cost basis without profit but keep a margin for yourself. slowly when the concepts catches up yU can sell at your price
