Notes
Model magic dough will dry in 2-3 days. You do not have to wait to hang the ornament. It will be stable right after making it if you tucked the toys in tight enough.
The little figure will stay in the dough without the need for glue (unless your child pulls it out). If that happens, just add a dab of craft or super glue. Ours have held up great without glue.
