Salt Dough
Ornaments
If you are looking
for some fun and inexpensive crafts to do this Christmas, making
ornaments with salt dough is a good choice.
Basically, with
salt, flour, water and some decorations you can make beautiful
ornaments to give as gifts to family and friends. On a rainy or
cold day, you will probably have these items around the house.
This is an excellent craft for kids. My kids and I started making
these about 3 years ago and now it has become a tradition each
year during the holidays. We make these for everyone and now
people look forward to getting one each year. You can also make
these for any occasion. We have made them for Valentines Day too.
What you Need
4 Cups of Flour
1 Cup of Salt
1 1/2 Cups of Hot Water
Holiday Cookie Cutters
Decorations, Glitter, Paint, Beads, Etc.
Knead the dough and roll it out to cut out shapes with cookie
cutters (just like if you were making sugar cookies). Place them
on a microwave safe plate and microwave on high for about 2
minutes.
Paint and decorate as desired. Most of all, be creative and have a
lot of fun!
