The modern saltdough tradition dates from 19th-century Germany where peasants made Christmas tree ornaments from salted bread dough. The technique is cheap, quick and versatile and requires no special skills or expensive equipment. This text comprises 15 step-by-step projects to make as gifts or keep. They include fridge magnets, a candle holder and a picture frame. Instructions are provided for all the basic techniques for making shapes and decorating the finished pieces, and there is a gallery of additional ideas at the start of the book.
