Description

For St. Patty's Day I thought my table setting needed a little bit of gold for each setting,so I made nugget-inspired gold napkin rings made from salt dough and metallic gold spray paint. (Salt dough)

Instructions

1. 

   I started with a salt dough made of 1/2 c. salt, 1 c. flour, enough water to make a soft dough, and just a touch of vegetable oil.(I used the veggie oil to help give a nice smooth texture.) I formed 8 rings around a cardboard tube covered in aluminum foil from the soft dough. Then placed the tube on a foil lined baking sheet.

2. The rings, on a baking sheet, where placed in a 200 degree oven until dried through. (This took a couple hours.) Let cool.

3. 

   Paint with Gold spray paint.(I usually paint mine inside a box to keep from getting paint all over everything else.) Let dry.

4. 

   Ready for the napkin and any St. Patty's Day Table.
