What you do:
Prepare salt dough (see recipe). Roll out salt dough and use cookie cutter to make a heart. (Save left over dough in plastic bag in refrigerator) Push a craft stick into the heart to function as stem. Let heart dry (1 day) or dry it in the oven on low temperature. After the heart is completely dry, cover with red paint and let dry. Cut a craft stick in half and glue on stem for leaves. Paint green and let dry. Brush a generous amount of glue onto the heart and sprinkle or dip into red glitter. Decorate pot and add a ball of salt dough to the bottom. Cut a hole in the middle of the paper doily and lay into pot. Push the heart into the hole and the dough. Print and cut Happy Mother's day sign and glue on leaves.
