Cinnamon Salt Dough Ornaments

Another fun activity that John Turner and I did this week was to make cinnamon salt dough ornaments. It was such a simple project! And John Turner truly had a fun time doing it! It is probably going to be a yearly tradition from now on.




We first got all of our ingredients and supplies ready. It is such a simple project that it didn't take very much prepartion on my part. That is my kind of project!



John Turner enjoyed measuring out all of the ingredients.



His favorite part was mixing up the ingredients with his hands to make the dough. He had the best time! Seeing his face doing this made the project totally worth it!





We then stuck the dough in the fridge to chill for a bit.



After chilling the dough, it was time to roll it out and decide which ornament shapes he wanted to make.






He did a great job rolling the dough and cutting out the shapes all by himself. He is mister independent these days!



After baking them and then cooling them, John Turner decided that the perfect thing to do was to use them to decorate our chandelier in our kitchen area. I tied some ribbon on them and hung them for all to see! He also chose some special ones to wrap and put under the tree for two very important people!
