Cinnamon Scented Ornaments
How to make Salt Dough Ornaments as Christmas keepsakes! Homemade Christmas Ornaments that smell like cinnamon.
Ingredients
- 1 cup flour
- ½ cup salt
- ½ cup very warm water
- 10 drops cinnamon fragrance oil (more or less depending on personal preference)
- rolling pin
- cookie cutters
- straw
- acrylic paint
- paint brushes
- glitter
- Mod Podge glue
- twine or string
Instructions
- Using a stand mixer (with a flat beater attachment) combine the flour, salt, and warm water. Mix until fully combined.
- Add in the fragrance oil.
- Once fully combined, roll the dough out so it is about 1/4 inch thick (put a little flour on the dough roller and the surface to make it easier).
- Cut out various shapes using holiday cookie cutters.
- Using a straw, poke a hole at the top of each ornament for hanging.
- Place the shapes on a cookie baking sheet and bake at 250℉ for 2.5 hours (or until they begin to turn golden).
- Decorate with acrylic paint.
- When the Mod Podge is dry, tie a piece of baker's twine to the ornament (for hanging).
- When the paint is dry, brush on a layer of Mod Podge glue and sprinkle on the glitter.
