This is a cool craft for Back to school.
You can also wear them in parties, or special meet like with school friends with
school logo on them. Just use your creativity, and you would be having fun in
making them again and again.
You will need:
. Salt Dough . A piece of card . Rolling pin . Varnish . Biscuit
Cutter (optional) . Baking Tray . Adult Supervision
Roll
out a large piece of salt dough to about 1cm (1/2in) thick. Using a heart shaped
biscuit cutter (or you can male an outline and cut it with a kitchen knife) cut
out five hearts. Place the hearts on a baking tray lined with parchment paper
and bake them in the oven for about four hours at 120degree C/250 degree F/Gas
1/2.
Ask
an adult to remove the tray from the oven using oven gloves & to transfer
the hardened shapes to the cooling rack. When cool, smooth the edges with sandpaper
then paint the hearts in lots of bright colors. When dry, apply a coat of varnish.
Cut
a strip of card 20cmX 5cm (8" X 2"). Check that it will fit easily over
your wrist before gluing the ends.
Glue
the hearts on to the bracelet, holding them in place until the glue sets.
