Salt Dough Christmas Ornaments
11:41 AM Posted In christmas projects , crafts , making ornaments , toddler recipes Edit This 4 Comments »This morning peebs and I decided to try and make some salt dough ornaments ! I did not plan ahead ( per usual) so I have no cookie cutters, but what I really wanted was to make his handprint ornament like we did last year.
Step 1: Preheat the over to 250
- 2 cups of Flour
- 1 cup of Salt
- 1 cup of water
Grizas don't own a rolling pin, so I just used a glass to roll out the dough:
and Momma pushed his little stubborn hand down anyway leaving me with some kind of sad impressions:
I used a paintbrush handle to poke a hole through. Don't forget that step or else you will be left with some cute paperweights.
(only 2 of my circles were big enough for his gigantic toddler hands, so I am gonna make photo frames with the other 2 and just pushed down the center for moge-podging a picture later.
and because you need to see the whole picture.......
Here is one MAD little boy when mean ole momma wouldn't let him organize the dog food .
SO DRAMATIC
and when standing up screaming becomes too taxing, time to sit, and scream. HA
Merry Christmas Y'all!

That middle photo is killing me -- he is precious even when he is screaming! (Says the woman who is a whole state away... HA!)
Love the pics! Merry Christmas, Grizas!
so funny, I'm right there with ya on the DRAMATIC temper tantrums when M doesn't get his way! So hard not to laugh at them when they do it! I meant to email you this link before Christmas but, well, ya know. :) Anyway, I made the same ornament from the same kit as you last year and wanted another BUT couldn't remember the name of the company. So I went to Michael's and found this

which is the same stuff as in that kit! It was enough to make two handprints and it was like maybe $5 or $6. I used a pen to poke holes in for ornament hanging and let it air dry for a few days! happy New Year Grizas!
glad we got rid of those annoying dogs!
