The 'clay' is papier mache. I've also seen recipes where you just use torn strips of newsprint to make stuff. You can use a balloon as a form-wrap the strips all the way around the balloon one at a time until you have about 3 layers thick. They take awhile to dry. I use the vano liquid starch undiluted to dip the paper in. To make bowls you could cover a whole balloon, let dry, then cut it in 1/2. You'd need to make some sort of base for it. You could cut some cardboard and make a bottom then cover that with papier mache too. I might have to try this!
