"Cookies?!"

No just Salt dough ornaments!

1/2 cup salt

1/2 water

1 cup flour

 spices if desired- we used cinnamon and nutmeg

 Mix well

 Roll out to around 1/4 inch

use cookie cutters to make your shapes or freehand like we did

Also keep your shapes fairly simple because your ornaments will bake up and out!

 Alex wanted to make a ball but I guess ours was to small. It cracked while baking so now we have pac man!

 Once they are cooled you can paint in your details!

 Blue snow man 

we used split peas for the buttons

 A wreath and a tree

The decorations just keep coming! Lime green, silver and black this year

 Around the entry to the kitchen

This is at my papa's home in Perryton! We strung tinsel put up ornaments everywhere in honor of grandma

Papa's tree

We are putting the finishing touches on our tree so I will post pictures soon!

Hope you have a very blessed week!
