About
Easy clay ornaments for any occasion.
Ideas for your dough shapes:
• Use stamps or embossers to make impressions in the dough, these can then be used as gift tags.
• Alternatively, you can paint the shapes or write names of them once the dough is dry.
• String the shapes together on some twine to make a pretty garland to hang over your door, or on the Christmas tree.

Step 1
Mix all three ingredients in the saucepan over a medium heat. Stir constantly until the mixture is too thick to stir with a spoon. Cool for a few minutes, until the dough is cool enough to touch.
-
Step 2
Transfer the dough to a bowl, and knead for 5 minutes until smooth.
-
Step 3
Roll out the dough on a smooth surface (I used a chopping board covered in baking paper).
-
Step 4Use the cookie cutters to press out the desired shapes. Use a toothpick to make small holes for threading string if necessary. Keep dough wrapped in plastic when you’re not working with it.
-
Step 5Leave the shapes to dry at room temperature. Depending on the thickness of the dough, this will take 1-2 days.
