Best 3 Ornament Dough Recipes

ORNAMENT DOUGH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Combine the flour, salt and water; mix well and knead for 10 minutes. Roll out on a lightly floured surface.
• Cut into desired shapes and make holes for hanging. Bake for 30 minutes; allow to cool.
• Decorate with poster paints or tube paints. Allow to dry and spray with clear polyurethane on both sides to preserve. Use ribbon or yarn pieces to hang.

DOUGH ORNAMENT RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Mix flour and salt well. Gradually add water, stirring with a large spoon. Finish mixing with hands. Knead until soft and pliable.
• Roll out on floured surface about 1/8 inch thick. Cut shapes with cookie cutters. Place on cookie sheets. With a toothpick make a hole in the top of the ornament for threading string. Bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) until hard, about 1 hour. Decorate with paint and varnish to preserve.

APPLESAUCE DOUGH CINNAMON ORNAMENT RECIPE

Steps:

• 1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine cinnamon and cloves. Add the applesauce, essential oil, and glue.
• 2. Knead in bowl for a few minutes, until you have a firm, pliable dough. Add more cinnamon if the dough is too wet, more applesauce if it's too dry.
• 3. Dust your work surface with cinnamon (just as you would with flour for regular cookies). Roll the dough to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut out shapes with cookie cutters, or press into a cookie mold. For molds, press dough into mold, smooth with rolling pin, remove, and cut away extra dough.
• 4. While still moist, cut a hole in the top of each ornament with the end of a straw for hanging. Place ornaments on paper towels and air dry for several days. Carefully flip them several times while drying so they won't bend or warp.
• 5. In a hurry? Instead of air drying, bake ornaments at 200 degrees F for about 3 hours, turning occasionally. Decorate!
