Sculpt Shish kebab for your doll's grill...

       According to Wikipedia, a "Shish kebab or shish kebap is a popular meal of skewered and grilled cubes of meat. It can be found in Mediterranean cuisine and is similar to or synonymous with dishes called shashlik and khorovats, found in the Caucasus region." If you've made a grill like ours, you will need a group of foods to play with on that grill.
       Shrimp Shish kababs are simple to make. The supplies include: Sculpey, wooden beads, skewers, white school glue, Mod Podge and acrylic paints.
       Follow the directions included with your oven-bake clay and shape pieces of pineapple, lemon and shrimp for the Shish kabab. I used wooden, round beads from a Dollar Store to mimic tomatoes. 
       Press the unbaked, sculpted foods onto the skewers prior to baking. I did this to make our versions of this craft permanently attached. Don't cut the length of the skewer until after the baking though. Because it is much easier to bake these three dimensional items propped up on a long skewer than laying flat inside of the oven. After baking, cut down the skewer and paint.
       Mod Podge and display at a doll's picnic or on your doll's grill.
