Homemade Christmas Ornaments

1 cup salt
2 cups flour
1 cup water

Mix salt and flour together. Add water a little at a time.  Knead on floured surface 7-10 minutes until smooth and putty like. Roll 1/4" thick.  Cut with any kind of cookie cutter, preferably with a design. Use a toothpick to poke a hole at the top for thread, ribbon, or hanger.

Lightly grease cookie sheet.  Bake ornaments at 325 degrees until light brown, approximately 20-30 minutes.  Some may puff a little.  Just give them more character. When cool varnish or pain to protect from moisture.

I've had these above since 1994.
