BAKED  CHRISTMAS ORNAMENTS

Great for Children and something that will bring back memories for years.  Also great gifts for Grandparents or friends.

4 cups flour
1 cup salt
1 1/2 cup water

Mix well and roll to about 1/2 inch thick.  Form into shapes or use cookie cutters.
Insert a bent paper clip at the top of dough figure for attaching a hook to hang.  Fine wire can also be used. 

Bake at 300 degrees, 30 to 40 minutes.  Cool and paint with acrylic paints. Use a clear coat of water soluble Liquitex or decoupage varnish to preserve the colors. 

I still have some that my children painted  at different ages, starting at age 3.  Great treasures & memories.
