2 cups flour
1 cup water
1 cup salt
1 cup vegetable oil
mixing bowl
rolling pin
knife
wooden stick
baking paper

How it is done:

  • Knead the flour, salt, and water together until the dough is smooth. If the dough is too sticky, add more flour.
  • Then, roll the dough out until it is approximately 0.5 cm thick. Cut out Santa Claus heads with a knife. Form the details, such as the brim of the hat, the pompom, and the nose, from the salt dough. Then, attach them to the Santa Claus heads with a little water. Use a skewer to make small indentations in the beard.

    Place the pendants on baking paper and dry them in the oven at 60–80°C for several hours, or leave them to harden in the air for one to two days.
  • Once the pendants are completely dry, you can use DO IT Craft Paints to decorate the hat and beard. Allow them to dry thoroughly.
  • Then, use the Do It Craft markers to add details, such as eyes and cheeks.
  • Finally, the pendants are attached to a raffia cord.
