Project 11: Salt Dough Tags

1 CUP SALT
2 CUPS FLOUR
1 CUP Warm WATER
200 degrees F/4 hours OR 250/3 hours

Easy Peasy.  I don't have a photo because we did this while I was in Michigan, barely recovering, and I didn't want to post someone else's photos.

The stamping thing works, but use a little flour.  Also, I like the thinner rolled ones.

And if you must have a photo (if I were the one reading, I would!!), here are a few links.

And, no, I don't have another Project yet.  YET.  But here are a few photos of this tooo long recovery.

"Daddy dressed me."

Basic Christmas Craft.  Melted Chocolate+Paint Brushes+Molds.  (we didn't really keep these to eat.  It was more to entertain them while I made chocolate covered pretzels as a teacher gift. )

Things are coming around slowly here.  I haven't even yet mailed my parents' things...

Kidney Update

Hi all!  I thought I would be back posting by now, but I am having a harder time recovering than I thought.  Papa Chin is doing well--the kidney donation was successful, but healing takes time.
By some miracle we have the Christmas tree up, but if you stop by for a visit, please don't be appalled by extremely messy house.

Be back with Project 11 hopefully soon.  There is crafting being done around here, but not by me.  Thank goodness for Pinterest and its unending kids craft ideas.:)
