"Family Love"
Our ornaments this year are special because it was something we were able to completely make together, building memories as a family!
The kids get to help mix the salt dough recipe, cut out with cookie cutters and decorate...
Salt Dough Ingredients:
- 4 cups all purpose flour
- 1 cup salt
- 1 & 1/2 cups warm water
Directions:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Mix flour and salt well. Gradually add water, stirring with a large spoon. Finish mixing with hands. Knead until soft and pliable.
Roll dough out on floured surface about 1/8 inch thick. Cut shapes with cookie cutters. Place on cookie sheets. With a toothpick make a hole in the top of the ornament for threading string.
Bake at 325 degrees until hard, about 1 hour.
Decorate with paint and let dry.
