Creative Advent Day 7 Christmas Scented Glitter Playdoh

30th November 2018 by adeleannett Leave a Comment

Christmas Scented Glitter Playdoh

We tried Autumn Scented Play Doh a few months back and to be honest I didn’t find it was that smooth, almost a little too crumbly. So we’re going to give this recipe a try from growingajeweledrose
It definitely looks interesting with “Lotion” as an ingredient but it does have a better feel to it than some of the other recipes I’ve tried.
 
NOTE 1: We did not use 2 boxes of cornflour like the recipe suggests. I would highly recommend emptying out the lotion first and then adding the cornflour a bit at a time until you get a good consistency. We ended up having to add some aftersun lotion (it’s all I could find) because we’d put too much cornflour in. We used 1 box of cornflour in the end and it’s difficult to say how much lotion.
NOTE 2: Depending on the amount of fragrance in your lotion will depend on how much the christmassy scents will come through. We struggled to overpower the aftersun scent.
NOTE 3: I was over ruled on the green colour for the third christmas doh so we had red, orange & white. We used both liquid watercolour & liquid food colouring but it was very difficult to get a stronger colour. 
 
Christmas Play Dough 

Cornflour
Lotion (she uses Nivea Shea Daily Moisture Body Lotion)
Liquid Food Colouring
Glitter (optional)
Choose a scent (see below)

We use the Dr Oetker food colouring from Sainsbury’s https://www.sainsburys.co.uk/shop/gb/groceries/dr-oetker-red-colour-gel-15g

Choose your scent

You can split up your dough and match different scents to different food colours

Vanilla extract
Ground Cinnamon
Peppermint Extract
Gingerbread: Cinnamon & Ginger

Origninal Instructions

See notes above for my recommendations

Add the desired amount of corn starch to a bowl.  
She used two 16 oz (450g) boxes of corn starch, and it produced a lot of dough.  
Slowly mix lotion into the starch until the desired dough consistency is reached.  
You can add more or less lotion to give you different dough consistencies.  
She used a full 20 oz bottle of lotion, and it gave me an amazingly soft and glorious play dough.
Once the dough is mixed divide it into equal parts.  She divided her dough into four bowls and made four play dough varieties.  
In one bowl she added yellow watercolors and a few drops of vanilla extract to give a sugar cookie play dough.
In another bowl she mixed green watercolors and peppermint extract to make peppermint play dough.  
Red watercolors and a few sprinkles of cinnamon spice gave a cinnamon play dough.  
To make the gingerbread play dough she used brown watercolors along with cinnamon spice, nutmeg, and clove.  To get the perfect gingerbread aroma you will want to use more cinnamon than the other spices
