remember THIS post? I made those cinnamon ornaments with Elisabeth. They were a hit! Jude loved it too, which is always a bonus. If you decide to make them, make sure they are thick. oh. and they smell ah-maz-ing.!.!
I am in charge of Elisabeth's class party and I was looking for a craft. I came across THIS via pinterest. I thought I would try it out and do a trail run pre-class party. EPIC FAIL. has anyone used this recipe before? seriously, it was a mess and looked like a huge white glob.
So I just went back to the good 'ol salt dough recipe. you will need:
2 cups of flour /1 cup of salt/ 3/4 cup of water (add a little more water is dough is clumpy) /roll out dough and cut with cookie cutters/ poke holes for hanging/ makes sure holes are big enough to fit string through/ bake at 200 for 20 mins then flip and bake for 10 mins./ when finished you can paint or color with marker/ use glitter and what ever other decor you want/ you can even add glitter prior to baking/
cost: less than $1.00 and yeilds about 20-30 ornaments.
cost: less than $1.00 and yeilds about 20-30 ornaments.
So I'm not great at math...but that is one swing'n deal right there! And God bless pinterest, each and every pin!
costs less than a $1. that is my kind of ornament making!
These are cute! If you had some creative cookie cutters you could just go crazy. haha
I remember making those as a kid. Adorable!
fun!
Thank-you for posting this, I have ALWAYS wanted to make these and needed inspiration (and a recipe). So much fun!
love these! I should have my class do this next year!
I REALLY want to make my own ornaments sometime, maybe next year now. but I love the concept, and you make it seem pretty easy, thank you btw for this recipe, and how to. wish me luck!
I too have had an "epic fail" when attempting salt dough ornaments. Glad you found the magic ingredients!
