can you all tell me how to make dough ornaments? salt, flour? im lost.?

Answer 1

4 c. flour
1 c. salt
1 1/2 c. water

Will make permanent decorations. Dough can be tinted with food coloring or painted with craft paint after baking.
Mix. If dough is too sticky, add more flour. Knead 4 to 6 minutes. After figures molded, bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour or more depending on size and thickness. Figures should be firm when done. Spray with a fixative when cool. A spray shellac or lacquer will work as a fixative.

or
1 loaf white bread, minus crusts
1 tsp. glycerin
1 (8 oz.) bottle Elmer's glue
1 tsp. lemon juice
For color: Thickened tempera or food coloring

In large bowl, knead above ingredients until no longer sticky, about 10-15 minutes. Keep in plastic bread bags in refrigerator or freezer. Excellent clay for beads, animals, etc. Hardens in a few days and may be varnished.

Answer 3

Find a good pretzel recipe. If I remember correctly, it's two parts flour, one part salt and one part water. You might need to tweak the components once you have it all mixed, but that's a texture thing. Remember, you have to bake them. Try foodtv.com for some cookie ornament recipes.
