Decorative Stepping stones

I wanted some decorative stepping stones to goon the barkchip in the garden, but couldn't find any I liked.

The kids and I had a big bag of air dry clay left, so we rolled it out to about 1/2 inch thickness...but you could do them thicker.
Then we used a plate and knife to get the circle.

We made words out of fridge magnets and stuck them firmly into the clay

Then we used biscuit cuttters to get shapes into the clay

 

Followed by letting them dry and  varnishing them with Yacht vanish to protect them. 

I'm unsure how sturdy they will be to stand on, but they will look good. They could also be painted, but we wanted a more natural look :)
