If you haven't already opened your parent gift, don't read this post.
This is the recipe I used for the ornaments you received from your child.
There are a gazillion different recipes out there, but this is the one I chose:
Several notes/adaptations I made to recipe:
** Bake at 300 for 20 minutes (you don't want them turning brown like cookies) and leave ornaments out to completely dry out - no need to store them in an air-container - it actually softens them, which I learned the hard way. :(
** The recipe doesn't say it, but this part is so important - prick the dough after you have cut shapes out, it keeps the dough from bubbling up during the baking process, again - learned this the hard way....
**Once completely dry, use acrylic paints and glitter to decorate. Let dry and spray with acrylic sealer. Then add yarn or ribbon to hang from tree.
