Crafts- Natural and homemade :)


So today was my sweet baby boy's 4th Birthday party. He was so blessed with so many people who love him. Our friend Alison made homemade Play Dough. I am loving this awesome new trend our group of mom's are doing! Homemade, all natural stuff! And I hope you all enjoy!






 DIY Play Dough (www.hellobee.com)
1 cup flour
1/4 cup salt
2 tbsp cream of tartar
1 cup water
2 tbsp vegetable oil
gel food coloring
Mix all of your dry ingredients together in a medium saucepan. Add your wet ingredients, including a good amount of gel food coloring and mix well. It will remain roughly the same color, so add more in this stage, if needed.
Place your pan on the stove top over medium heat. Stir continuously until it starts to get chunky.  Trust me — the first time you see this, you will think you have done something wrong, don’t worry. Keep stirring until it forms a big dough ball.You will know when to take it out, then place on a plate to cool. Once cool, knead it a bit yourself or get little helpers to do it for you. The whole process takes about 5 mins. I did all of these colors in about a half an hour. You can really whip out a multicolored set in no time.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY KRISTOPHER!
