Coffee Salt dough mini potplant


Salt dough is amazing and it only requires staple ingredients which are easily found in any household pantry. I started using it to make alphabet blocks for my son to learn alphabets. Then I started to be more creative and I made a fridge magnet for Father’s day. I just fell in love with it and it is addictive! I recently found this coffee salt dough recipe which uses used coffee grounds as part of the ingredient.  I love the idea of using recycled stuff and turn it into something useful.  

Coffee Salt dough recipe:

1 cup of used coffee grounds
1cup of salt
1cup of flour
1 cup of water (You don’t need the full cup)

 Instructions

Mix the coffee grounds, salt, flour into a mixing bowl. Then, slowly add the water to the dry mixture and knead the mixture into dough. If it is too sticky add more flour.
Once you are happy with your project, bake it for 1 to 2 hours at about 100’c.
