Salt dough jewellery

Hi guys! 
Today I'm going to how to make so cheap and easy jewellery,using salt dough. Salt dough is like a biscuit that goes hard when cooked and wont go off. You can put stamps on it, or paint it with nail varnish.
You will need:
1/2 cup salt
1/2 cup water
1 cup flour
Stamps
Nail varnish
String

1) Mix together the flour salt and water. Next roll it out and cut out the shapes. Poke holes in your shapes for the thread. Make the holes bigger than they need to be, as the holes shrink in the oven.

2) Put your pieces onto a plate and put it in the microwave. They should be cooked for roughyl three minutes. Take them out every twenty seconds, to see if they are hard yet, and to make sure they don't bubble.

3) if you are stamping them, do this after two minutes or so, so the stamp will keep it's form. After three minutes, take them out. If you like, paint them with nail varnish, and then thread them.

There you have it. Some easy jewellery you made yourself.
