Servings: 1 batch
Equipment
- Small container with an air-tight lid for storing
Ingredients
- 1 cup + 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- ½ cup white hair conditioner I used TRESemmé brand
- Glitter white or silver
Instructions
- Pour the all-purpose flour and glitter into a large mixing bowl. Mix the flour and glitter together with a spoon until the glitter is spread evenly throughout. I used one pack of silver glitter plus a little extra white glitter that I had on hand from a previous craft. I recommend using 1-2 packs of glitter to this amount of flour.
- Add in the hair conditioner and begin mixing with the spoon until the dough is clumpy and needs to be kneaded by hand.
- Turn out the dough onto the parchment paper and continue kneading by hand until you have a nice, soft, sparkly dough!
- Enjoy! Store in an air-tight container to keep the snow sough soft, and it will last for weeks!
Notes
This dough is much like a playdough texture, and because we are using flour, it is not as bright white as the typical cornstarch recipes, but it is super soft and smells wonderful!
If you want a more snow-like texture that “crunches” and crumbles but also forms in your hands when pressed together, you can use cornstarch instead of flour along with hair conditioner.
For a snow-like texture, use 1 cup cornstarch and ½ cup white hair conditioner. Follow the directions for the recipe below! We prefer the flour recipe because it holds together better and isn’t messy like the cornstarch recipe.
