Rather than making salt dough ornaments, I found some inexpensive FIMO air drying clay and decided to use that instead ~ no baking required ~ and it dries to a pretty matte white…
A few basic tools like cookie cutters, a rolling pin, parchment or waxed paper for rolling onto and whatever stamps, tools, etc you'd like to use to create pattern and off you go…
I played around with doilies, the round head of a sewing pin, the cap of a marker and some rubber letter stamps to create pattern and words on mine…
A stamp pad can be used to add colour to the letter stamps too…
Although they looked quite grey while I was making them, they dried to a pretty white. They can also be painted if you don't want an all-white look…
I love the way these turned out and they're so much fun to make. I only used 1/3 of the package of clay for these ornaments so far so I can still create quite a few more before the big day.
Have you made any ornaments for your tree this year?
