    thanks :o

    LOL at celebrity :rotfl:

    this is the salt dough recipe I used, but I baked them rather than air drying, as after a week the air dry ones were still oozing salty goo on my work tops :)

    Hi WABL and floxxie,

    Thanks for your good wishes.

    Another mortgage free strategy: Homemade christmas decorations :D

    We have some decorations, but not loads and quite a big house, so I was trying to think of festive trimmings that would be super :money:.

    Salt dough christmas tree ornaments (see below) and homemade candy canes have already been manufactured, and I'm working on some eggshells painted with cracklegold paint too...
    So far I have made 120 christmas ornaments for £1.25
