Salt Dough Recipe
Ingredients
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup salt
1 1/2 cups warm water
Directions:
Mix flour and salt. Then gradually add water, finishing with your hands. Knead until soft: think playdough.
Roll out on a floured surface and cut with cookie cutters or trace kids hands with a pencil on the dough and cut them out with a butter knife in a sawing motion. You will need to smooth the edges. Cut holes before baking to hang the ornaments (the holes shrink only a little), or hot glue opened paper clips to the back of baked pieces.
Bake at 325 degree F for about an hour, or use a lower temperature (200 degrees) for longer to prevent bubbling. You can add food coloring to the dough or paint them with acrylic; we used nail polish last year.
