Welcome to Re-purposed Ideas Weekly Blog Hop where we share our ideas about what we’ve repurposed this week.
Today, I would like to share a kids craft that we did at church relating to Joseph, who was a carpenter. We made sawdust dough and made ornaments for Christmas. You could use this dough to make whatever you like.
Here’s the recipe:
2 cups clean sawdust
I cup flour
Water
Put the sawdust and flour in a large mixing bowl. Add water until the mixture holds together in a stiff dough. You want the dough to be firm sort of like a pizza dough. Before it gets to this point, it will be wet and very sticky.
Once the dough is firm, put it on a piece of wax paper and knead it a little. Then form it into a shape or roll it out and use cookie cutters.
Allow your masterpiece to fully dry before you move it again. This could be a day or up to a week, depending on how thick it is.
Now it’s your turn to share. What have you repurposed this week?

Wow–now there’s a creative idea I had no clue about!
How cool is that? I never knew you could use sawdust for anything but the garden!
What an interesting concept, I never would have thought of that! Thanks for hosting the linky party, Marlo; I linked up my chicken coop nest box curtains.
Have a great week!
