Do you remember the salt dough candle holders we made for Diwali? They look just a good decked out in Christmas colours. The salt dough recipe is the same but this time they’re painted with red acrylic paint with lashings of red glitter for added sparkle. A row of these on the mantle piece or in the centre of the Christmas dinner table look so festive.

These are adorable….how long did they take to cook? We did salt dough ornaments and they took over 6 hrs to bake! Thanks for sharing at Thrifty Thursday!!
LOL–before I started reading, I thought, “hey, these would be great for Diwali, too!” We’ll make these for my boys’ American grandparents AND Indian grandparents. One project. Score!
That’s win – win Dawn! Hope you enjoy making them.
