I have seen handmade snowflake ornaments that are made of paper, felt and even pastas! Here is another cute idea to make Christmas ornaments – DIY Salt Dough Snowflake. You can use cookie cutters to make different patterns of snowflakes. It’s not new to make salt dough ornaments, but I love this idea to make the salt dough into beautiful lacy snowflake using small cookie cutters. You’d have to be very careful to pack these away nicely. You could just make new ones each season as a tradition. You can hang them on the Christmas tree, or use them in other Christmas craft projects. They will be a lovely addition to your holiday decorations! Head on over to the Katrysya blog for the full step by step instructions and the salt dough recipe. For DIY salt dough snowflake ornaments, all ingredients you will need:
- 1 cup flour (self-rising flour should not be used as it will cause the ornaments to bubble up while baking)
- 1/2 cup salt
- 1/2 cup water (or more as needed)
- non-toxic acrylic varnish
- Rolling pin
- Cookie sheet
- Cookie cutters
- Acrylic paints
- Paintbrush
