Last week me and the kids made these fun and very easy star ornaments. If anyone is interested in trying to make these, the recipe is listed below. They're not edible.Ingredients;
2 cups of flour
2 cups of salt
1 cup of water
Mix all the ingredients together and stir well. Separate, form into balls, then roll out the dough. Use star cookie cutters (or another shape) to cut out the ornaments. Once the dough is cut, place on a lightly greased cookie sheet and poke a hole on the top, so that when the ornament is done baking you can thread a ribbon through it to hang. Place into the oven and bake at 375 for 20 minutes or until hardened.
I used to love making ornaments when my kids were young. We always had so much fun.
ReplyDeleteI just read your teapot post. You have some beautiful ones. I collect cups but I only have a couple of teapots. What have I been messing out on?
Good morning, dear Lydia,
ReplyDeletethose star ornaments for the Christmas tree are lovely. I am sure that your children had a lot of fun making them with you.
Wishing you a pleasant Tuesday,
Eva
Hello Judy,
ReplyDeleteThey were so fun to make. Now I'm so angry because last night while we were sleeping I heard this loud noise in the livingroom, so I woke up to see what it was. My dog was eating the star ornaments I made off of the tree. I couldn't believe it! Thank god there was nothing toxic in them, but they're hard as a rock. I had to move them all to the top of the tree. Hopefully she won't get at them there.
Thank you, Most of my teapots were my mom's.
Wishing you a great day,
Lydia

Have a great day,
Lydia
