Dough Heart Magnet
Dough Heart Magnet
VALENTINES DAY DOUGH HEART MAGNET OR PIN
by Bluebonnet Crafters
Materials:
Bread Dough Recipe, see below
Waxed paper
Small amount of acrylic paint
Magnet or pin back
Thick craft glue
Small heart shape cookie cutter or sharp knife
Paint brush
Acrylic sealer (matte, glossy or glitter)
Small ribbon rose, color of your choice
Instructions:
Using prepared bread dough you may color the dough by kneading a few drops of
acrylic paint into the dough or you may paint the finished pin/magnet. Between
pieces of waxed paper roll dough to a smooth 1/4" thick sheet. Using the
cookie cutter or knife cut heart shapes from the dough and allow the hearts to
dry thoroughly. When dry place a coat of the acrylic sealer on the front and
back of the heart and allow to dry. Attach the pin back or magnet to the back
with the craft glue and the ribbon rose to the front just below the dip in the
heart.
Bread Dough
4 pieces of bread (remove crusts & make bread crumbs for cooking or feed the
birds on your next nature walk)
4 Tablespoons of white craft glue
A small amount of acrylic paint to color
Zipper type plastic bag.
Tear bread in small pieces and place in zip bag, add glue. Mix well until it
starts to form a ball. Add paint to color and mix well. It will form a smooth
ball collecting all scraps when ready to use (it takes a while). Keep stored
in zip bag in refrigerator until ready to use. Shape as desired and allow to
air dry depending on thickness of shape and humidity can take several days to
cure. Shape should be turned over at least one time to be sure it dries
thoroughly. This can be made without color and finished shape painted if you
prefer.
