Let's Make Oobleck! 1  Mix 1 part water with 1.5 to 2 parts corn starch. You may wish to start with one cup of water and one and a half cups of corn starch, then work in more corn starch if you want a more 'solid' oobleck. 2  Mix in a few drops of food coloring if you want colored oobleck.
A cameo is a material that is carved with a raised relief which often depicts a profile of a face or a mythical scene. They are made most commonly out of shell, coral, stone, lava, or glass. The smaller carvings that are incorporated into jewelry are set in either gold or silver.
Today the term may be used very loosely for objects with no colour contrast, and other, metaphorical, terms have developed, such as cameo appearance. This derives from another generalized meaning that has developed, the cameo as an image of a head in an oval frame in any medium, such as a photograph.
