Looking for something fun to do with the amazing children in your life. How about a fun craft?! I recently made salt dough ornaments with my little one. Here is what we did.

First, we made the dough (recipe below).

Second, we shaped the dough into creative shapes. We used cookie cutters, ravioli wheel cutter, and our fingers and hands. If you want to capture your little ones’ feet and hands this makes a great keepsake.

Third, we baked the ornaments on low heat for several hours (oven at 250 for about 2 hours). Then we let the baked ornaments rest on the kitchen countertop overnight.

Fourth, the next day we decorated our homemade salt dough ornaments. You can use a glue/water glaze or Modge Podge to preserve your art.

Wishing you the joy of the season with time spent with family and children.

Love,

Marisa
