We used some air dry clay that we purchased from Riot. 500g was enough to make 35 small ornaments.We rolled the clay out on baking paper; embossed the clay using cuttlebug embossing folders or imprinted with rubber stamps; and then cut out the ornaments using Christmas cookie cutters. We also made a small hole for hanging.
We then laid the ornaments on baking sheets and left them to air dry for 48 hours, turning them every 8 hours or so.We then coated them with some spray on varnish to seal the clay.
Finally, we threaded some red and white bakers twine through and tied a knot.
We are planning on setting up the Christmas tree this afternoon - can't wait to start getting our home ready to celebrate Christmas.

These look stunning! I love how they have been left white.
These are gorgeous! I've been making salt dough ornaments, but might need to give clay ones a try too!
