Salt dough ornaments on pinterest

Anyone done any?  I'm wondering how they worked out.  I've seen several different ones pinned and the one I pinned has some comments that it bubbled a lot.  So I was just looking if anyone had a recipe to reccomend and/or tips for making them.  Thanks!

Re: Salt dough ornaments on pinterest

  • I used this recipe and maybe we used too much water (probably about 1 1/2 cups), but ours turned out waaay too doughy. The dough also stuck to H's hand, which really pissed her off. I made them on Saturday and they're still bendy even after being in the oven for 2+ hours and sitting out for several days. It made four ornaments and they're super big/heavy. I doubt we'll be able to hang them on the tree because they're so heavy.

  • I think Chandley posted recently that she did one from Pinterest and loved it.  I meant to try it, but haven't gotten to it yet...
  • I made them and have some round ones left over I could drop by your house if you'd like them.

    We made the one's she posted and they turned out great!

     

  • These are the ones that I posted about and they turned out great! (Glad they worked for others too!) https://onceamonthmom.com/homemade-handprint-ornaments/

     

    My tip is to press HARD into it otherwise it doesn't come out that well. I even did one with the dog paw. Ha! Here is a pic of ours again in case you missed it:
