Ship-Shaped Favors

Dress up the table with FamilyFun

6 of 6

The original MAYFLOWER was 90 feet long and packed with everything from pots and pans to chickens and goats. These miniature clay vessels, filled with a tasty cargo of nuts and dried berries, make the perfect favors for young dinner guests.

MATERIALS
Polymer clay
Wooden toothpick
Paper plate
Pushpin
Nuts and dried berries

How to make a Nut Fleet For each boat, use 1/3 of a block of polymer clay (Sculpey III or Fimo works well) to form a rectangular pinch pot and then shape one end into a pointed bow. Stick a tiny ball of clay to the center of the boat's floor. Push one end of a wooden toothpick into the clay ball for a mast. Bake the molded clay according to the directions on the package.

When the clay has cooled, cut a four-sided sail from a paper plate. With a pushpin, pierce holes through the top and bottom of the sail and slip it onto the mast. Now load up the hull with a sweet and crunchy treat.
