Christmas Ornaments

Happy Holidays! We're all about the laid-back, homemade Christmas in our house, and our tree reflects that. Here's a recipe for Christmas ornaments, easy-peasy and fun for kids both young and old. Can't wait for our niece and nephew to come over and help paint them! Of course, I had to paint a few myself...


Christmas Ornaments

4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup salt
1 and 1/2 cups water

Blend flour and salt, add water and stir. Work dough into a ball and knead for a few minutes until smooth and pliable, adding flour if sticky and water if crumbly.

Roll out dough to 1/8". Cut out to desired shapes (if making ornaments, don't forget to poke a hole at the top for hanging). and bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes. Cool completely and decorate.
