How to dry salt dough?
There are two most common ways to dry salt dough. The first method: the finished craft will dry on its own. The main thing is that it should not be exposed to direct sunlight, otherwise it will crack. The craft can be placed on a flat surface and wait a few days. Second method: dry the finished craft in the oven for 3 to 6 hours (depending on the size of the craft). Drying occurs in batches with breaks. One approach is 1-2 hours. For quick drying in one go, set the oven to 75-100 degrees, and then the craft will dry in an hour. At a temperature of 120 degrees, the craft will dry in 30 minutes, but it is better to dry it naturally.
Drying rules
Not only the appearance of the craft, but also its durability depends on proper drying. There are several drying methods.
The first method is the simplest, but takes a lot of time - up to several weeks. The exact time depends on the thickness of the crafts. It consists of leaving the product at room temperature until completely dry.
Important! With this drying method, about 1 mm of material dries in one day.
A faster way is in the oven. The craft is placed in a cold cabinet, the temperature is increased every hour. In the first hour of drying it should be about 75 degrees, then 100 and 150.
How to color salt dough?
There are two most common ways to color salt dough. The first method: after drying, paint the finished craft with acrylic paints or gouache using a brush. Second method: food coloring is diluted in water, then added while preparing the dough. When the craft is completely painted and dried, it must be coated with transparent manicure or furniture varnish in 2-3 layers. Each layer must dry before applying the next. This way the craft will last for a long time.

How to decorate the edges of baked goods
This can be done in a number of different ways. Again, it all depends on the imagination of the craftswoman and the time she can devote to decorating her culinary work.
Pigtail
First you need to weave a long, not too wide braid from strips of dough. And then carefully place it along the side of the pie, which must first be moistened with water or greased with yolk. This way the decor will not fit tightly and will not roll off.
Squares
In this case, the edge of the product must be cut shallowly with scissors and bent in a checkerboard pattern outward and inward. Making the squares too long is not a good idea. In this case, they will not be able to keep their shape and the appearance of the culinary creation will be ruined.
Leaflets
A wonderful decoration made from yeast dough for a sweet butter pie on top: we’ll tell you how to make it step by step with photos. Before you start finishing baked goods using this method, you should cut the dough mass. You will first need to roll it out into a thin wide layer, and then cut leaves out of it using a mold. They need to be laid out, as in the first option, on a side greased with yolk or moistened with water.
Harmonic
This design is done very simply - by hand. It is enough to form a zigzag pattern with sharp tips.
Wave
Almost the same as in the previous paragraph. Only the wavy edge needs to be made rounded and larger, pressing it harder with your fingers.
Circles
Similar to the above option, only using a round mold. In this design technique, the choice is practically unlimited, as are the varieties of forms for decorating pies.
Patterns using hands, spoon and fork
You can skillfully decorate baked goods with your hands, not only with an accordion or a wave. An edge with successive small turns will look no less attractive.
First you need to fasten the bottom and top of the product together, and then methodically pull the dough a little with your fingers and wrap it inside. It turns out something like a twisted rope.
Using a tablespoon you can create a scallop pattern. It will be enough to attach it to the side perpendicularly. The first dent should be made by applying the larger part of the cutlery, the second with the very tip.
There is also an opportunity for the fork to participate in beauty creation. Simple, fast and tasteful. Tilting it slightly, you need to leave characteristic marks along the entire edge. The end result is nice little ribs.
Owl (eagle owl) made from salt dough
You will need: salt dough, pva glue, nail file, manicure scissors, acrylic paints or gouache, brush, wooden board with a pendant, transparent manicure varnish.

- Blind the second eye in the same way.
- Using a nail file, make small stripes from the pupil to the outer shell.
- Make rays around the eye by pressing the nail file onto the dough.

How to make a rose from felt with your own hands
Handicraft masters are very fond of such material as felt. And this is not without reason, since felt is sold in a variety of colors, different thicknesses, with or without glitter.
Jewelry - brooches or hairpins made from this material - have become very popular recently. Therefore, you can consider the option of making a felt rosette, because it can complement the image as an accessory.
Materials:
- Felt: green, pink or red
- Threads
- Pencil
- Hot gun
You need to cut out 4 round pieces with a diameter of 7-8 cm from felt. You can make them using a compass or circle some round piece of furniture. Cut each circle in half. Sew a semicircle along the straight side with matching threads.
Finally, pull the thread taut, gathering the petal and securing the thread. We need to make 7 petals like this.
From one petal we twist the middle of the bud.
We fix the rosebud at the base with stitches and a knot.
We wrap the petal around the middle of the rose and secure it with a thread near the base.
We wrap the next petal around the previous ones and fix it. There will be as many petals as lush as you want the flower to be.
Cut out leaves from green felt. We attach them with a hot gun to the base of the rose.

Rose from isolon: master class for beginners
Until decorative creativity began to develop, no one could even think that building material could be useful for creating decorations. For example, such roses from isolon have become popular among photographers who decorate photo zones with them.
Isolon can be different in thickness - from 0.2 mm to 1 cm. To make flowers, a material of 2-3 mm is ideal. You can purchase colored material.
Thin isolon is easily cut with scissors. It also melts, but does not ignite. Therefore, you can make beautiful flower edges. You can easily make waves as the material stretches, but it is quite difficult to tear.
You can fasten the parts with hot glue, a stapler, or thread.
You can also use hot air from a hair dryer or a soldering iron.
In the sun, such material may turn yellow.
If you want to make a colored rose, then initially buy colored material, since isolon cannot be painted with simple paints.
To create a beautiful rose from isolon, you need to cut petals of different sizes.
It depends on what the end result should be.
For example, the largest petal can be 20*20 cm, 30*30 or even larger. The small one will then be about 12*12 cm.
First you need to cut out several templates of different sizes. We transfer each petal template to the material to make 6-7 identical parts. Number of them
depends on how lush you want the bud.
The larger the outermost petal, the larger the size of the petals needed and, accordingly, their number will be greater.
As mentioned above, you can attach the petals to each other in different ways. Choose the most optimal one for yourself.
Isolon lamps in the shape of a rose, for example, have become fashionable.
A growth rose from a laminate backing can also be made in this way.
