Treasure Chest Thursday: Ornaments From Mom and Dad When the Kids Were Young

When my children were young, my parents sent a couple of Santa ornaments for our Christmas tree.  They appear to have been made from salt dough, and coated with something clear and shiny to preserve them.  I have passed these on to the kids.

  1. These are cute! It seems your collection has a zillion items. The transparent thing is varnish. It not only gives a shine, but also keeps the dough elements together/prevents them from drying out (and going into pieces).
