    I haven't tried this yet, but I would like to try using the dough recipe and putting their handprints in it as a keepsake for the parents. Has anyone tried this?

    I saw that on pinterest and was going to do it next week once I get some more salt.
    Here is the link. They look awesome.

    The recipe seems a bit different but not that much different from Alphagettis.

    BTW Alphagetti - we did Christmas cookie decorations today using your recipe and they were good

    I am contemplating trying the hand prints next. They do look great.

    We did this in the summer when I had a Dinosaur theme and this is how we made fossils, except I told them to tell their parents the handprint was a dinosaur footprint. I used my old playdo for this craft bedcause I wanted to make a fresh batch.

    The ornaments that were mentioned earlier was our Christmas present to parents a few years ago and I also used my old playdo for these crafts. We cut out Christmas shapes and I put a hole in the top for ribbon, the children painted them and I used spray shellac after.

    I added some spice to this recipe - cinnamon, all spice, nutmeg, pumpkin pie spice....they smell nice but my dough seemed too sticky....am I adding too much water? the end result was okay but not as pretty as the website pictures...i may try it again tomorrow and not do it so hasty....
