Salt Dough Recipe
Ingredients
Ingredients
1 cup salt
2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup luke warm water
Directions
2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup luke warm water
Directions
1. In a large bowl mix salt and flour.
2. Gradually stir in water. Mix well until it forms a doughy consistency.
3. With your hands form a ball with your dough and kneed it for at least 5 minutes. The longer you kneed your dough the smoother it will be.
Store your salt dough in a air tight container and you will be able to use it for days.
You can use cookie cutters to cut out shapes and stamps to imprint into the clay once they have been rolled out. Experiment with pressure to find the perfect amount you need. Paint your creations with acrylic paints and seal with varnish or polyurethane spray.
You can let your salt dough creations air dry, however salt dough can also be dried in the oven. Bake at 200 F until your creation is dry. The amount of time needed to bake your creations depends on size and thickness; thin flat ornaments may only take 45-60 minutes, thicker creations can take 2-3 hours or more. You can increase your oven temperature to 350 F, your dough will dry faster but it may also brown, which won't matter if you are painting your entire creation (you can also cover your dough in the oven before it turns brown).

TOP 10 Party Cities in the World
Planning to travel in the near future?
Try one of these places!

Try one of these places!
Buenos Ayres the Argentine capital is often praised for being the perfect mix of European and South American cultures. The night life there only finishes around 6 o'clock in the morning. Be ready to party until you drop!!
Needs no introduction -- Ibiza has been the undisputed hot spot for hedonism and decadence for decades. Ibiza (Spanish) or Eivissa (Catalan) is a Spanish island in the Mediterranean Sea just off the coast of the city of Valencia in Spain.
Reykjavik, the word rĂșntur translates to “round tour” and that’s pretty much what it is – a round tour of the neighborhood, a way to pass the time on long, dark winter nights or during the seemingly endless days of summer.
Together with New York and Madrid, Berlin has become a reference point for party-goers. It has an open-minded heterogeneous and indomitable social life along with a cosmopolitan nightlife.
Tel-Aviv, the Mediterranean-vibe and all-night dancing make the second-largest city in Israel a popular destination for the jet-set
Las Vegas, nightclubs range from chic to relaxing. The Sin City is one of the ultimate theme parks for all things over the top and indulgent.
Any number of places on the Cote d'Azur could have gotten the nod, but perhaps no place evokes Riviera glamor like Saint-Tropez.
Hvar! While probably the least familiar name on the list, this beautiful town on the Croatian coast's reputation has skyrocketed in recent year, and is said to be the best place to go in the Adriatic.
Rio de Janeiro
If there is one place in the world offering every single earthly delight any sane man could want, Rio de Janeiro is it. Sprawling beautiful women, parties 24/7 and people living life at full tilt is what this Brazilian city of seven million is all about.
Budapest
Budapest. Sophisticated designer clubs with star DJs, R'N'B, house, trance, drag queen shows, Latin music, live concerts, jazz, striptease, rock, pop and good old disco – there is no shortage of night parties.
New York City
Most weekend nights, expect things to get jumping around 11 or 11:30 and keep going until last call at 4 am: New York City isn't called the city that never sleeps for nothing.
