I had several people ask me about the recipe for the home-made ornaments. It's very simple:
1 cup flour
1/2 cup salt
1/2 cup water
Mix ingredients and roll out. You might need to add extra flour if too wet. Use cut outs. I chose to do hand imprints, so I made cut outs with a circle, then pressed Kellen's hand into the dough. If you want to hang ornaments, use a toothpick to make a hole in the dough before baking. Place on cookie sheet, bake at 275 for 2-3 hours (until dough is hard). Cool cut outs for several hours. I used acrylic paints to decorate. After paint is dry, I sprayed with polyurethane. Let dry. Thread string through hole, ready to hang.
