DIY Essential Oil-Infused Salt Dough Christmas Ornaments



Here's a fun project!! Grab the kids (even the adult ones!) and make these fun ornaments for the holidays together!






What You Need:

• 1 cup flour
• ½ cup salt
• ½ cup water
• Approximately 5 drops of essential oil ~ combination of Orange and Cinnamon Bark recommended
• Rolling pin
• Cookie cutters
• Baking sheet
• Paint, optional
• Ribbon

What You Do:

Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Mix together flour and salt in a bowl, then stir in water and essential oils until smooth. Lightly flour countertop. Roll out dough until it is approximately ¼ inch thick. Cut out ornaments in desired shapes, and don’t forget to include a small hole to string ribbon through. (A plastic straw or wooden skewer works great for this.) Transfer shapes to ungreased baking sheet and cook for 2-3 hours, until completely dry. Remove from oven and allow to cool. At this stage, ornaments may be painted or decorated. String with ribbon, and your ornaments are done!
