The back view of my ornament. The mitten on the left is not a salt dough ornament, just a neighboring ornament.
My cute salt dough ornament (except for her unsightly skin condition covering her face. Not sure what happened but it is a little discolored.)Here is my salt dough recipe. It is so extremely easy and makes the best ornaments.
2 C Flour
1 C Salt
1 C water
Mix, roll out and bake at 325 for an hour and a half or until it is dry.
When I made them with my kids, we kept the dough plain and then painted the ornaments with paint. Then when I made them with my daycare children, we just added food coloring to the dough to make red ornaments. Use a straw to make the hole for the string. When you are finished you can cover it in a lacquer if you want but I didn't- they aren't THAT cute.
