Hi Vicky.


Don't dilute it.  Yes, it works very well with pulp.  Here's a tip:

Allow the liquid starch to sit out overnight or out in the sun for a little while until it becomes tacky.  Add pulp and voiala!  Work it like clay from that point.  However, drying time will be quicker because it's thicker.

Experimentation is the key with any medium.  Also, pulping can be accomplished within the starch in its liquid, not tacky state.  Some prefer to create pulp using water.  It's all relative to what works best for you.

Have fun and keep us posted.
