A Witch's Cauldron: Fun Craft Project

Fun Craft Project

Rose Petal Beads (submitted by Lady Griddlebone)

1/3 cup wheat flour
1 tbsp salt
2 tbsp water
3 cups rose petals
Round toothpicks

Mix flour, salt and water to make a stiff dough.

Cut rose petals into tiny pieces, then crush by rolling between your palms.

Mix as many rose petals into your dough as possible without making it crumbly.

Shape small amounts of dough into beads.

Push round toothpicks thru center of each to make holes.

If desired, scratch designs into beads.

Allow to dry a few days; remove toothpicks before dough gets too hard.

Makes enough for one necklace.

*note:rosaries are so named because they were originally made of rose petal beads.
