Recipe - Salt Dough Ornaments - December 2016

Ingredients:
1 cup salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup water

Other Tools:
parchment paper, wax paper, or aluminium foil
rolling pin
cup/cookie cutters (cutting shapes)
straw/pen (for punching hole)


Directions:
1. Mix salt, flour, and water in a bowl until it becomes firm.
2. Knead dough for 30 seconds.
3. Roll out dough. The thicker the dough the longer it will take to dry.
4. Cut out shapes.
      - For paw print ones I cut circles with a glass. Then press your dog's paw into it.
5. Use straw/pen to cut a whole for the ribbon to hang the ornament.
6. You may bake them in a 200 degree oven for 2-3 hours. (I believe I left ours sit out overnight.)
7. Once cooled and dried out paint or decorate as desired.







I painted ours with craft paint and put string on them to hang them.
