🔸Ingredients🔸

2 cups flour

2 cups colored water

1 cup salt

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon cream of tartar

5 drops of essential oils

.

🔸Instructions🔸

Combine all ingredients, except for essential oils, in a large saucepan and stir until combined.

Once combined, put over medium heat. Using a spatula, continue to stir ingredients together until it forms a ball. Note: Don’t overcook as it will lead to dry play dough.

Remove from heat and cool on parchment paper.

Once cool, add five drops of your favorite essential oil and knead until thoroughly combined.

(We like to match the oil colors. So purple for Lavender, blue for Peppermint and orange for Wild Orange 😍😍)

You’re done! Just store in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for months of fun.
