Salt Dough Ingredients Needed

1 Cup Flour
1/2 Cup Salt
1/2 Cup Warm Water
OPTIONAL: Food Coloring

Tips!

Make sure your water is warm, but not too hot! The water temp helps mold the dough.

If you want a variety of colored houses, make mini batches of dough. 1/4 cup salt, 1/2 cup flour, 1/4 cup warm water is the perfect recipe for a small batch. It yields three houses.

If using food coloring, remember to add your coloring to your warm water FIRST, then add the water to your dry ingredients, this makes for an even color and quicker mixing.
