A girl that doesn’t like accessories? Impossible! Make this year’s slumber party craft extra-ordinary with Divaliscious Dough Pins. Pin them on a shirt, backpack, ball cap or even a tennis shoe.

This craft allows the Slumber Party girls to not only get some quality time in the kitchen but let’s them express their inner Van Gough in the decorating aspect.

The supplies are simple. Visit your local Super Store or Craft Supply and pick up cookie cutters, magnets, safety pin backs, hot clue, assortment of acrylic paints (I prefer glitter), paint brushes, acrylic sealer, wax paper and a cookie sheet.

When it’s time for your slumber party craft have all of the girls hang out in the kitchen to mix ½ Cup of Salt; 1 Cup of Flour and ½ Cup Water. Knead the dough and roll out with a rolling pin on wax paper (helps to avoid a mess) as if you were making home made sugar cookies. Now use the cookie cutters and cut out your favorite shape and place on a baking sheet. Now bake at 250 degrees for 2 hours. While the cut outs are baking it’s a great time to play a few Slumber Party Games such as Truth or Dare or 20 Questions.

Once the cut outs are baked and have cooled, it’s time to get creative and decorate with the assortment of paints. If the girls want to write their names, acrylic paint pens as well as a toothpick dipped in paint works very well.

When the paint has dried, coat with an acrylic sealer. I prefer the spray kind. Let mess is always best! Now, simply hot glue the pin backs on the back of the little masterpieces to have ready for the girls to wear the next morning.

If you have a birthday near the Christmas Holiday, this craft makes wonderful Christmas ornament. Before baking simply take a straw and push through the dough to make a hole. After baking, decorating and sealing, tie a pretty ribbon or even raffia through the hole to hang on the Christmas tree.

I promise you, the Slumber Party Girls will rave over this way cool Slumber Party Craft!
