STEPS
TOOLS
Gather your supplies
Form a bun shape with tan clay and set it aside.
Mix red with various browns to get the desired hot dog color. (You could make a sausage or something instead)
I decided to go with a cartoonish red hot dog
Roll out a thin log
Diagonally press a large needle on the top of the hot dog to make lines
Something like this
Get a black chalk pastel and load a brush
Fill in the marks made earlier
With a clean brush, use browns and reds to add color to the bun
This makes it look like a real bun
Slice 3/4 of the way through the bun
Use a tooth brush, foil, or needle to "rough up" the edge of the bun and make it look like real bread
Stick the hot dog in the slice
(Optional) roll out yellow or red clay as thin as possible
Stick on to make custom condiments et voila! Tu as un hotdog! Bake and glue on a magnet or push in an eyepin before you bake to make charms and keychains. Don't forget glaze! Enjoy :)
