You could try using polymer clay... it is easy to work with, cures in the oven or toaster oven and is fairly inexpensive. If you do decide to use polymer clay, be sure to use a baking tray or pan that you will never again use for food! if you want to do it this way, and need any tips or advice, you can email me and I'll help with any questions you might have...
