Our first efforts at homemade salt dough ornaments was a lot of fun. On the tree, the finishing touch on a gift or wrapped around a jar of baked goodies, these little snowflakes are the perfect festive touch. I was found rolling and cutting long after the children had finished. I clearly need to spend a little more time with the kids when the playdough is out.
We made (or should I say I made) a bunch of starfish for our by the beach themed Christmas table. I can wait to put these together with all of our beachy collections. Let's hope the vision comes together!
Salt dough
1 cup flour
1/2 cup salt
1/2 cup water
mix together to make a soft dough. Cut shapes and bake for 40 min at 100/200 degrees.
note: If your oven is too hot the dough will crack.
Can't wait to see themed christmas table.
