I was SO SO pleased to find this salt dough project by Gail at That Artist Woman. I love the colors and nothing says “fall” better than leaves. It also reminds me so much of my most prized possessions in the whole world – a salt dough plaque I made when I was two:
Gail has been so kind as to share the adult version of salt dough prints with us at her site right here. The good news is that kids can help you, so at the same time you are creating, your children can be too. What to do with the finished prints? Use them as accents in your other projects, make smaller versions for scrapbooking or even create a mobile. Don’t forget to seal them with the Podge!
Blogger who loves the color blue and sock monkeys. You can find me in public easily— I'm wearing glasses and lots of stripes.
This is great, Amy – - and I love the one you made when you were two.
I teach a 2/3 year old preschool class and I think I can do something like this with them. They’ll love it.

So I’m just guessing here but this “salt dough” appears to not be edible. Because my first instinct was oh my god this combines 2 of my very favorite things, Leaves and cookies! But I feel like I would be very dissapointed if I tried to sink my teeth into this. Damn it. Good job anyway =)
great project! i love this look and i love all things fall related! may have to try my hand at this one!
Thanks everyone! Yes, young kids love this.
And Boomka. When the world comes out with Mod Podge cookies you can really eat, I’m in big trouble.
