Creating Christmas salt dough ornaments using handprints and footprints is a delightful way to capture precious memories of your little ones during the festive season. To make the salt dough, simply combine flour, salt, and water, then knead until smooth. Roll the dough out to about 0.5cm thick and use cookie cutters to create festive shapes like stars, Christmas trees, or snowflakes.
Once you've cut out your desired shapes, carefully press your child's handprints or footprints into the dough to create beautiful imprints. This not only adds a personal touch but also serves as a lovely keepsake for years to come. After baking the ornaments in the oven until hard, you can decorate them with festive paint, glitter, or ribbons for an extra special touch.
Hang these charming creations on your Christmas tree or gift them to family members as heartfelt presents. Each ornament tells a story, capturing the joy and whimsy of childhood during the most wonderful time of the year.
