Mini Grottos

 We make clamshell grottos.  The little grotto closes up for transport home.  I bought a pack of 6 x 6 clam shell containers.  The plastic ones are harder to  paint or decorate.  We put up an image of St.Bernadette and Our Lady of Lourdes’ grotto.  The kids use Sculpey to make clay figures of Our Lady.  We use a little shred to hold the figure in the clam shell.  The kids painted the clam shells and  sculpted the figures.  They bake quickly.  We went through any number of adhesive jewels and mini flowers.
