For a smoother dough, use very warm water. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time. Baking time may vary depending on the thickness of the ornaments and your oven. Keep a close eye on them to prevent burning. Get creative with your decorations! Use glitter, beads, or other embellishments to personalize your ornaments.

Jun 12, 2024Great recipe! I found that baking at a slightly lower temperature for a longer time helped prevent the ornaments from cracking.
