In this posting there are recipes for:

Bake Art Dough
Scented Cinnamon Ornaments

*******************************


Bake-Art Dough

4 cups unsifted all-purpose flour
1 cup salt
1 ½ cups water

Blend flour and salt, add water and stir. When water is mixed in, shape dough into a ball. Knead dough about 5 minutes or until texture is smooth and pliable. Add more flour if dough is sticky, add more water is dough is crumbly. Roll dough out on lightly floured surface to 1/8” . Cut out ornaments and place on cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for approx. 20-25 minutes. With spatula remove baked pieces to cooling rack and allow to cool completely. Store unused dough in plastic wrap. Makes approx. 3 dozen shapes.

NOTE: Bake-Art dough is for decorating purposes only such as ornaments and magnets, it is not edible.

TIPS:

To make ornaments, cut a small hole near the top of cut-out design using a straw before baking. Thread with colored ribbon if desired.

After your Bake-Art pieces are cool, decorate with non-toxic paint, glue on decorations and glitter.
