Daily Art: Ornaments

Here’s What You’ll Need:

• Crayola Air Dry Clay
• Cookie Cutters
• Paint
• Glitter
• Ribbon, Yarn or String
• Toothpick

Instructions:

• Roll out the clay to about 1/4 in thickness and cut out shapes using cookie cutters.
• Use a toothpick to create a hole at the top of each shape. You can also engrave the name and/or year on the back of your shape with the toothpick.
• Let dry for 1-2 days.
• Paint the front side of each shape and then sprinkle with glitter. Let dry and then paint the back. Older children will likely paint the sides too, but our 2-yr-old artist chose to leave the sides bare.
• After both sides are completely dry, tie a string through the hole.
