Make it your own

1. Mix flour and salt. Add water gradually until you have a firm dough.
2. Roll to about 5 mm thick and cut simple shapes. Make a ribbon hole.
3. An adult can dry them in a 100°C oven for about 2 hours, checking them; thicker pieces may need longer. Let them cool completely.
4. Paint the dry shapes and add ribbon. These are decorations, not food.
