Smiley Daddy & Me Magnet


What You'll Need:

  • ¼ c salt
  • ¼ c water
  • ½ c flour
  • Cookie sheet
  • Acrylic paint
  • Paintbrush
  • Toothpick (to make designs in the soft dough)
  • Acrylic sealer spray
  • Magnet
  • White craft glue

  1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees F.
  2. Mix together flour, salt, and water. Dough should not be sticky; you should be able to work it in your hands. If it is too sticky add small amounts of flour until you get the consistency that you want. Be careful not to add too much flour as your creations will crack!
  3. Use dough to make whatever shape you want. The example is two faces, but your kids can use their imaginations. Don't make them too large. They are more easily broken.
  4. Place cookie sheet in oven and bake for 2 ½ hours.
  5. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
  6. Paint.
  7. Get a grown-up to spray the entire surface with acrylic sealer spray.
  8. Glue a magnet to the back and let dry.
