When my husband and were married the first christmas we didn't have money for oranments. I made these and they made it for 38 yrs. I think if I had stored them in my house instead of in a tote they would still be here. Those were my favorite. Tks for sharing

@donnakloss4625 4 года назад

Awww 38 years is a long time! I bet they were Beautiful

You do the best tutorials I've seen on RU-vid! I appreciate the fact you mention all the things that can go wrong so that we can avoid them. It is also refreshing to see that you have some that don't turn out the way you want so you just discard them! Have a great weekend!

@findingkellyann 8 лет назад

+jbsubscribes I hate it when I am in the middle of something and the tutorial may have left out a key step! I want everyone to be able to create the things I teach. I am so glad you like them!

@Airamni Год назад

"My arthritic dog is trying to get up" I love that! Thank you for the tutorial.

@justachick3114 4 года назад

try using butcher freezer paper. Its shiny on one side and would work well instead of parchment

@keristevenson2757 4 года назад

Wow! Those are some beautiful rings!

@TarnishedTreasures1 8 лет назад

I love your videos like this. It makes me feel like I'm at your house crafting with you.

@findingkellyann 8 лет назад

+MsStoneHome That is exactly how I want you to feel. You can come over anytime to craft, we would have a ball! How is that beautiful baby? Is your daughter in love with him? I bet Christmas is going to be fun at your house!

@peggymicsky8607 4 года назад

I used to make dough ornaments in a similar fashion. I would paint them with acrylic paint and varnish! Can be very creative!

@janedoe805 4 года назад

If you do this regularly I would invest in a “Silicone Baking Mat” such as Silpat. They are sold all over the Internet. You can roll out your dough then bake, you won’t have those lines from the parchment paper. They last for years. Thank you for the video, I think you did a wonderful job. 👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

@traddymom4368 4 года назад

Do you think you could add some kind of scent to the dough? I wonder if using essential oils would effect the consistency. A nice peppermint or balsam would smell so nice! Also, try using a straw to make the ribbon holes. Much easier.

@supersleuth3161 4 года назад

Hi, love the wreath and Christmas tree ornaments, they look really nice with the dry brush technique! Thanks

@taunjiachandler6607 4 года назад

Have you thought of using fingernail polish. The glitter kind would be perfect. You can even get tiny brushes to paint into the crevices

@jarjarwithtina3848 4 года назад

They turned out beautiful..u could use tea to antique them too

@ElizabethGS 4 года назад

January 2020, and I thoroughly enjoyed your presentation and tips. Hope to make these next year. Thank you!

@Debbie462 8 лет назад

Awesome I love the Mickey heads! Happy Anniversary!

@Squabetty 3 года назад

This was great! And happy anniversary! The following year

@findingkellyann 3 года назад

Thank you.

@barbarastothart4172 4 года назад

Mixing the dry ingredients together does work better. I used a whisk to mix rather than a spatula. I did use a spatula to pick up my ornaments rather than my hands.

@elizabethgonzalez1509 8 лет назад

I loved loved the video you answered a lot of questions I had. super excited to start making some wonderful memories with my grandchildren thank you so much!

@peggydid 4 года назад

I just got a silicone mat for rolling pie crust. That may be good to use instead of the parchment paper. Love this project! Thanks!

@habari7 4 года назад

Do these hold up better than the salt dough method? Also, can you use a whisk to stir it until it starts to thicken? Loved watching this...

@lorettayoung7220 Год назад

Thank you! There so pretty with the stamped impressions. Merry Christmas! ✨🎄🎀❄☃🦌

@TariHuffaker 4 года назад

this is so nice. How do these ornaments hold up over time?

@WifeMommyFamilyJourney 8 лет назад

This was so neat!! Going to try this with my kids!!! Thanks for sharing and Happy Happy Anniversary!!!

+WifeMommyFamily Journey Thanks! I hope you guys enjoy it!

@jude1515 4 года назад

Those are beautiful!

@destinybrady4226 8 лет назад

I made the same thing today and I mixed the dry ingredients together and it seemed to make it easier to mix.

@plug1461 4 года назад

Destiny Brady that's a really good idea thank you I'll try that. Do you know if it breaks easily, I want to make some with the kids but don't want them to break the decorations when they are done

@Amina2544 4 года назад

I intend to make hanging window ornaments like these, and since I have never worked with this dough, I have a few questions: how fragile are these, after they are dried, painted and varnished? And how long do they last, indefinitely, or do they start to crack or crumble with time? Thanks in advance!

@barbaraness1973 4 года назад

Belated Happy Anniversary!

@LindaMcIntosh-vp9nm 4 года назад

I use a rolling pin that you can unscrew the end...pour ice water in it, screw lid back on. It doesn't stick. I've yet to use this recipe, but you can try it. I got my rolling pin about 20 yrs ago from Tupperware but you can find them other places too.

@tammygregg8265 4 года назад

Linda McIntosh ~~ My mom had one of those and it had a mat she used with it. Just cleaned out her house (she’s elderly and doesn’t live alone now) and I looked everywhere for it! Never found it. Great rolling pin!

@jarjarwithtina3848 4 года назад

I used to make salt dough it was good too after cooking was very hard

@kathleenwhite9741 4 года назад

I bet a Dremel tool/E nail file would be less likely to break the ornaments, if you have one available. Thank you for sharing your crafts with us! 😀👍

@brendasmyth3196 Год назад

I hope this little too helps u,u need to use a blade or scraper to lift Ur pieces from one surface to another and when Ur stamping put s little cornstarch on Ur stamp first and that way it won't stick to the dough,luv Ur ornaments thank u👌💖

@atticusfinch4266 4 года назад

You might need an offset spatula. That's what I use to get stuff off of the parchment to transfer.

@JournalArtPaperie 4 года назад

great! If you place the pattern on the dough and then cut it out, you won't have it spreading more or going out of shape.

@questioneverythin101 4 года назад

Embossing first, then cut out shapes, seems to be the way to go

@letsmom2737 8 лет назад

Thank you so much for this great idea!! The mickey's are so beautiful, am totally doing this for my in laws and my brother/sister in law. Both Disney megafans! They will love this handmade Christmas gift and my kiddos can help. :)

@findingkellyann 8 лет назад

+Tabatha Mahaffey I'm sure they will love them. Yu can also glue a magnet to the back so they can use them year round.

@gerilynne1955 4 года назад

In not sure if you are still making these. If you are, try the new non stick baking sheets gor rolling them out sold on Amazon. They are great for things like this. Also I use a straw for my holes. I wonder if you had taken the stamps and add paint or ink to them as you stamped if they would have been a nicer finish on the stamp area? Great video. Thanks.

@LittleWillie1000 4 года назад

I love this dough. I have ornaments that are about 30 years old. I air dry mine though.

@susansanders9332 5 лет назад

Hi Kelly, I'm just watching your video here in 2018. My question is how many ornaments do you get out of of batch of dough? Hope you see this and can answer.

@dawsie 4 года назад

Hi just a tip for the clay dough is add some glycerine to the mix while cooking this will give it a smother finish and not as sticky 😊😊 lol if you take that lovely drinking straw from your drink it will make the perfect size hole 😹😹😹

@mollysmomndad2 4 года назад

How much glycerine to this recipe?

@dawsie 4 года назад

Let’s see, she’s used 1 cup of cornstarch and 2 cups of baking powder 1 would say about 2-3 tablespoons you don’t need much 😊

@brendacooper7944 Год назад

I had thought about using the stamps to paint decorations on them instead of free hand painting.

@hwezda Год назад

Really nice video. Can you dust the rubber stamps lightly with cornstarch before you impress them on the dough? Might make them less sticky.

@cindysorensen9385 4 года назад

Great project, video and idea...... thanks for sharing!!

@jamiek.7149 5 лет назад

Put corn startch on your stamp first and it won't stick

@mbjlhj 8 лет назад

Does it break easy when it's finished

@lanawoodall1618 8 лет назад

Happy Anniversary to you and your Honey. You have a wonderful marriage to celebrate. What an excellent holiday DIY! I love the Mickey heads. :)

@findingkellyann 8 лет назад

+Lana Woodall Thank you Lana. I love the Mickey heads too! I might make some with the Mickey glove and see how the turn out. I'm going to add a red & white ribbon to some of the Mickey's to make Minnies ;)

@lanawoodall1618 8 лет назад

Use puff paint that way they Dont attract ants no sugar

@countryinthecity3736 8 лет назад

Its after Christmas now...but I am so going to make hearts and paint them red and pinks....for valentines and hang them from a wreath or garland for my mantle. Where, may I ask, did you get the mickey cutter? I so want one.

@findingkellyann 8 лет назад

+Sherri Tucker Fyan I was lucky enough to find them brand new at a thrift store but I am sure you can buy them online

@tammygregg8265 4 года назад

Country in the City What a great idea-to make them for Valentines Day!!! ❤️ ~~ I say 3 years after your post hahahaha

+Thats me Thanks! We had such a nice day!

@jeangreenfield5993 4 года назад

Using edible food colours for making 'ink' for the stamps would be so fun too 😊 very interesting 👍 Any ink could be used of course.

@fikribashar5376 7 лет назад

do you bake the clay

@lynnpaul6808 4 года назад

You broke, on purpose, my favorite tree.

@kathybays910 4 года назад

If you dust your cookie cutters with dry cornstarch they will not cling to your dough mix and they will stamp w/o sticking

@jengle1970 4 года назад

could you use wax paper, so it doesn't get soggy and wrinkle? or a non-stick baking pan? can you add color to the dough, like food color or alcohol ink?

@findingkellyann 4 года назад

John Engle you cant use wax paper in the oven if you choose to back your ornaments on the paper. I’m sure you could add color, I’m not sure how ink works in the oven if it’s alcohol based (just a hobby crafter 😊)

@charlenehansen8633 4 года назад

Would using an embossed rolling pin solve your stamping problem

@amoszahir7346 3 года назад

dont know if anyone gives a damn but if you're bored like me during the covid times then you can stream all the latest movies on instaflixxer. Been binge watching with my girlfriend during the lockdown :)

@leonardmakai643 3 года назад

@Amos Zahir yea, I have been using instaflixxer for months myself =)

@curtriceennis2924 4 года назад

Hope you see this. Thank you for sharing this with us. I'm just wondering if you could maybe roll it out kinda thick, line an ovensafe bowl with parchment paper for if you bake it, or, plastic wrap if you let it set outside - would make nice texture on the outside of the bowl. And, make a little bowl for candy dishes or potpourri .... maybe placing food coloring in them while cooking it, and, use gloves to work it. Would food coloring change the drying or shaping "ability" of it? Or, would it just be too brittle to use for a candy dish? I may try it, sometime. Thank you again for sharing this project with us.

@tracyruth4247 4 года назад

A straw works well for making holes (coffee straw for smaller holes). I want to try this dough for an ornament using pawprint from my dog before she passes. TFS!

@tanyaseaman67 4 года назад

Maybe stamp first, then cut out?

@stephani9223 4 года назад

Omg that ring! It’s beautiful!

@angellynette8258 7 лет назад

Great tutorial. I have a problem with mine cracking, but I think it was because I had a fan blowing on it, idk. I also wondered when people stamp there's, cause I have tried it after drying and it didn't work good. If you stamp with ink, do you stamp before you dry it?

@Elphyrafire 8 лет назад

Thanks!!

@joleenphillips2415 4 года назад

Rub a bit of cornstarch on stamps and cookie cutters before you stamp/cut out shapes. They won't stick as much.

@jarjarwithtina3848 4 года назад

Mickey is awesome

@peliroja8099 3 года назад

If these get wet after they have been dried in the oven, does the consistency mess up?

@findingkellyann 3 года назад

I think they would fall apart if they got wet

@vickielawson3701 4 года назад

I used to make these when I was in grade school, for my Mother.. she kept them for years until.they crumbled...

@clarkclarke 4 года назад

Really nice ...the upside down Mikey ears look like a carriage ..

@nuthing11 8 лет назад

mine are cracking when drying what can I do so it won't Crack?

@findingkellyann 8 лет назад

They might be too thin or they are drying too fast. You can leave them to air dry but it does takes several days

@ljohn1999 3 года назад

Can they be dried in a dehydrator?

@findingkellyann 3 года назад

I have never tried that 😁 Let me know how it works if you try

@lorisanford8515 4 года назад

I'm thing maybe dust your surface with cornstarch to make sure it won't stick 😊

@1979Marisol 8 лет назад

AWESOME!! Thank you!! I have been trying to find a recipe thats easy peasy!

@andreazavala7159 4 года назад

I see that you're not using glue!

@Pitt4ev99 8 лет назад

love your channel thanks for always sharing I am going to make these.. BTW I see you have a glass stove top stove what do you use to CLEAN the top of it? I am having a horrible time finding something that cleans the top

@findingkellyann 8 лет назад

+sharon Kenney I use Weiman Cook Top cleaner. I buy at Publix but I think they carry it at Target and Walmart. Sometimes I scrap the gooo off first with a razor blade and then use the cleaner.

@ElizabethGS 4 года назад

@@findingkellyann 4 years later ;) but I've used this fantastic product called SprayWay Glass Cleaner not only on my glass cook top, but on my glass oven doors, granite kitchen counters, all mirrors, windows, glass doors, faucets, small kitchen appliances, porcelain floor tiles, glass tv screens (on a microfiber cloth), etc. It literally works on everything and leaves a fantastic shine while cleaning up pet messes as well! It was once hard to find but now my husband is able to get 3-4 cans wrapped together at one of the Warehouse stores (unsure if it's Costco, Sam's or BJ's --he shops at all three and keeps me well supplied). Other places used to charge a fortune for a single can which I'd use sparingly--saving it just for the cooktop and granite...now it's much more affordable. Everyone I've turned on to this product immediately switches to it if they can find it.

@jarjarwithtina3848 4 года назад

If you wanted to can you add food coloring?

@deloresdavis1299 4 года назад

Yes you can!

@karapoole4070 4 года назад

What about using dehydrator to dry?

@habari7 4 года назад

I wondered the same thing...

@rosiefindlay4239 4 года назад

It's easier if u add the pattern u want with your stamps before u cut out shape as this stops u distorting the shape, just angle your cutter round the pattern,

@jcrefasi1 4 года назад

Dusting the stamp with cornstarch before stamping the ornament will help prevent the stamp from sticking to the dough

@katherineandjeanette2537 8 лет назад

I'm looking to give homemade gifts this year and these will be great! I may try this this weekend :) can you use something to seal in whatever technique you use for decorating? Happy Anniversary! ~Jeanette

@findingkellyann 8 лет назад

+Katherine and Jeanette I use hairspray to set the glitter and yes I would recommend sometime of spray sealer if you will be storing them, you may want to wrap them seperately so the don't stick together. They sell a sealer at Michael's but I can not remember the name :(

@katherineandjeanette2537 8 лет назад

+DixieDebutantes no worries I can just go to Michaels to look ☺ but thank you so much! -Jeanette

@tommiejaegarcia3169 8 лет назад

How many hours?

@findingkellyann 8 лет назад

+xoxo Queens Several hours, the best way to judge is to keep an eye them, turning them over every hour until you feel they are dry.

@maydamcfadden3973 4 года назад

Yes I want to hear actual measures at beginning too. How long can you play rolling it before it's too dry to not waste, as in the trimmings. Do you store in plastic or just paper ?
