Bread Dough Ornaments

2 parts flour

1 part salt

1 part water

dish detergent

Paper Clips


Put a few drops of dish detergent into the water and then combine all the ingredients.  Knead until well mixed.  Form into shapes or roll and cut out with cookie cutters.  Place a small paper clip into top and leave a little sticking out for the hanger.  You can also add beads for eyes or anything that will be okay if you bake it. You can use food coloring to pre color dough.   Bake at 325F.  Bake ½ hour for every ¼ inch thickness of dough.  You can bake longer at lower setting if you are afraid of browning dough.  After you bake and let cool paint with any water based paint.  Seal with acrylic spray and polyurethane.
