DIY Salt Dough Pendants

DIY Salt Dough Pendants are an easy activity that requires a few ingredients:

1. Two cups of all-purpose flour
2. One cup of water
3. One cup of salt
4. Pokey thing (I used a satay stick to poke the string through)
5. Flowers (if you want to make them flat press them in a book)
6. String

Directions:

1. Mix the flour & salt into a large bowl, then add water. Stir well, then knead the dough for about 10 minutes. My child used mixing the dough as an opportunity to play with his construction toys :)

2. On a large piece of foil, flatten the dough using a jar or rolling pin, then use the pot to cut out your circular pendants. Afterwards, use a satay stick or some other pointy object to poke a hole in the top of the pendant where the string will go through.

3. It's preferable to let the dough dry outside in the sun; drying time will depend on the thickness of the pendant. If you want to speed up the process, you can bake them for 10 mins at 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).







Have a lovely day!
