Salt Dough Ornaments

What you'll need:
1c Flour
1/2c Salt
1/2(+) Water
** optional: smell stuff (cinnamon, ginger, ect)
Cookie Cutters
Paint
Ribbon
Glitter
Markers

What to do:
Mix the flour, salt and water until dough forms (add water in small amounts until desired consistancy).
Knead until dough it smooth and elasticcy
Roll out until 1/4" thick and cut with cookie cutters (or get creative and cut out free-hand)
Poke a hole into each shape (a plastic straw works well for this)
Bake about 2 hours at 250f
Once cooled decorate as you like - to keep your ornament longer, make sure you spray with a varnish or something after it's been 'prettied'.
