Take the Saucepan and put it on Medium to Low heat on the stove top (3 or 4)
add the 1 and 1/2 cups flour 1/4 a cup of sugar, 1 cup water, and 1/4 a tsp oil.

You should add flour and water until you get your desired consistancy as these measurements are just ideas of what you may want.

If you'd like a higher varnish you should add more oil.

Stir It

Stir up all your ingredients over medium to low heat ( depending on how hot your stove top gets) for 5 to 10 minutes but make sure NOT TO BOIL  the mixture. 

Stir constatnly until well mixed
