Heart salt dough decorations

You may have done these when you were little and think this is just a little kids craft but it can be done at any age and you make far better quality items when you're older!

You need:
1 cup flour
1/2 cup salt
1/2 cup water
Cutters
Paints/pens

Step 1: make your salt dough by mixing the flour and salt with the water until it forms a dough
Step 2: dust your surface in flour and roll your dough out using a rolling pin
Step 3: use your cutters to cut out shapes from your dough and use a needle to make a hole (big enough to thread ribbon through) in each shape 
Step 4: put the shapes on a baking tray
Step 5: bake for 20mins at 200 degrees
Step 6: take them out and wait for them to cool
Step 7: decorate them using felt pens or paints
Step 8: wait for your design to dry and then thread a ribbon through the hole
