Two Passes and a Fail

I thought I'd share a couple of pictures of my salt dough ornaments.

Here are two Christmas trees from two different cookie cutters.

I've been playing with dying the dough different colors using food coloring.

I figured out here that my fingernails make pretty good branch impressions.

Here I used Puffy Paint to make ornaments on the tree.

I found that the cheap acrylic paint from the Dollar Store also 

covers the salt dough well but I am not very talented with a paintbrush

so dabbing the Puffy Paint worked better for me. 

I can't figure out how to rotate this picture but you can see 

that the angels look more like ghosts.  I used a straw 

to make the holes (I find two holes are better to hang the bigger

ornaments).  I also have a skewer I use and will try that 

on next angels.  Hahaha.  This is a live and learn business.

More later ....
