hmm… our surface wasn’t glassy smooth, but it wasn’t bumpy. just a tiny bit on the sandy side, i guess. not sure where you might have gone wrong, if at all? we just followed the mary ann kohl mudworks recipe i posted above. were you able to paint them and enjoy? you may want to also try the salt dough recipe – we made valentine garland hearts out of the salt dough – recipe from same book.

We finally made these yesterday but I was kind of surprised by the final texture of the baked ornaments. The surface was quite bumpy, and I don’t see that in the pictures you posted- did we go wrong somewhere???

This looks delightful. I love things that smell good–we may just make this. I also am very inspired that you made ornaments ahead of time. I’ve been wanting that “mudworks” book. I have her other one–Preschool Art–but am so inspired by the title “mudworks” I think I would prefer it . . .

Thanks for stopping by the blog Jen. Your blog is great and I think cinnamon dough is an idea my kids will LOVE! I have it bookmarked for the next day of all that *perceived* boredom that summer sometimes brings.
