Using a straw or skewer, make a small hole at the top of each ornament. This will be used to hang the ornaments later.
4. Bake the Ornaments
Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C). Place the ornaments on a baking sheet lined with baking paper or a silicone baking mat. Bake for about 2 hours, or until the ornaments are completely dry and hard.
5. Decorate
Once the ornaments are cool, it's time to decorate! You can use paint, glitter, or any other decorative items to make your ornaments unique and festive.
6. Hang and Enjoy
