6th Day Giveaway and a Tutorial!

I live in Northern California.  Not everywhere in California is sunny, but the weather here is awesome, and there is a lot of sun...we hardly ever see snow or ice.  In fact, I don't think 2 of my 3 children have every seen snow.  That is a little sad.

For those of you that live in warm places you will love this gift idea for the Holidays!

The California Snowman!

The California Snowman Tutorial

Snowman Play-Dough

1 cup flour

1/2 cup salt

2 tsp. cream of tartar

1 cup water

1 tsp vegetable oil

glitter (opt.)

Mix the dry ingredients.  Mix water and oil together in separate bowl

and then add them to the dry ingredients.  In a pot, cook the mixture

for 3-5 minutes on medium heat stirring constantly.  The dough will

start to pull away from the sides of the pot and stick together in a large

ball.  Take the dough out and add glitter if desired.  Knead it until it

becomes soft and smooth.  Allow the dough to cool and store in an

airtight container.  You can double and even triple the recipe!

Variations:

Candy Cane Play Dough

Add red food coloring and a few drops of peppermint oil.

Gingerbread Play Dough

Add 1 TBS. cinnamon, 1/2 tsp. nutmeg, and 1/2 tsp. cloves to dry ingredients before cooking.  Careful...it smells yummy, but doesn't taste very good!

I just filled the jars 1/2 full so that we could fit the tiny embellishments in too!

I also included the recipe in my jars as part of the gift.  Remember to get creative!

We included googly eyes, pipe cleaner stick arms, buttons, and a tiny felt braided scarf and felt hat.

On the Second day of Christmas...

I have been feeling a little guilty for a while.  Guilty that we do so so so many girly and frilly things on the site and those poor lil boys get left out all of the time.  My chance to make up for that a little bit is in today's post!  Today's giveaway is a handmade tiny beanie and coordinating tiny socks for the bouncing baby boy that you know.

On the Second Day of Christmas Sassy Pepper gave to me:

A tiny hand made Hat and

2 tiny pairs of socks for a little boy baby
