The best play dough recipe. Today I’m joined by Tinkerlab reader Natasha Levochkina McCain, who’s sharing her glowing playdough recipe with us today.

The best play dough recipe

This is one of the coolest ways to update play dough, and I think you’ll get a kick out of it. We sure did. Enjoy! This play dough inspired my whole family. Not just my two sons (three and five years old), but even a very busy and sometimes moderately grumpy Dad and our 15 year old. Not only was it exciting for the kids to stay up after dark to play with the dough, but they also created space landscapes, alien creatures and even an alien alphabet.

The intension was to make some fun looking play dough for a 6 year old boy as an impromptu present. I started mixing the ingredients before I realized that I only had unbleached whole wheat flour left. Disaster? I decided to go ahead and to make the dough anyway.

A few weeks ago I was thrifting with my sibs and found these brand Banana Republic jeans (with tags!)

Altering Jeans // adding width to a waistband

For $10. They fit super great in the hips/thighs/legs, but surprisingly, I had to squeeze those bad boys quite a bit to button the fly. Weird. Usually it’s the other way around, right? Altering Jeans // adding width to a waistband. Utah County Mom: Giant "water bed" outside sensory bag.

You might also enjoy let's talk lip balm. After making my own lip balm I will never buy it again. It's easy, cheap, 100% natural and good for your lips, especially this time of year. I tried to figure out the actual cost of this recipe but it wasn't worth counting up the pennies.

Gift Ideas for Poor Creative Souls (10)

What a wonderful idea and those paint swatches you can pick up for free. You can use an old lampshade and use the frame or pick up an old one from the thrift store. You can also purchase them new in art and crafts shops but recycling makes this project more fun. These are the materials you'll need: - paint swatches in the same tones or you can use multi-colored if you prefer - wire frame from old lampshade (this will hang upside down) - large circular hole puncher - cellotape - cotton thread - scissors.

Kids Books & Gifts. I’ve always thought that origami was pretty neat.

Kids Books & Gifts

I’ve seen people fold paper into those prophetic fortune telling contraptions, make beautiful swans out of napkins, construct geometric fish in just a few creases, and create those highly fashionable newspaper hats. However, to be perfectly honest, aside from the occasional paper airplane, I had never made an origami figure of my own. Of course, when I was offered the opportunity to test the Alphapets Origami Book, I had to give it a try.
