DIY Christmas 'Cookies' Ornaments



Only two ingredients plus a sprinkle of creativity.

Actually, this project happened because I found a pack of expired crushed graham that I wouldn't want to go to waste. If you do not have one in your pantry, don't fret because you could do with any store-bought air-hardening clay or visit my post about homemade bread clay to be just as economical.

To start off, you only need to mix these two ingredients to make a dough.

A pack of expired crushed graham and white glue.
Mix in the white glue slowly, checking out the consistency as you knead till everything clump together and nothing sticks on your hand anymore. Put the dough inside a plastic bag and let it rest for about thirty minutes.


Roll it flat then open up the plastic bag and you are ready to cut away.

Very much like preparing a real cookie dough.

Christmas cookie cutters would come in handy at this point but there's no reason to not use a craft knife when cookie cutters are not available.

Time for the fun part.
Decorate your 'cookies' with glitter dusts, tiny beads, shiny little trinkets and whatnots. Don't forget to pierce holes for the tag strings.


'Bake' or dry them cookies, beside the window maybe facing the sun.

Not forgetting to dry the underside of course.
