Servings 1

- Mix together water, food coloring, and essential oil in a separate bowl.

Notes
Note: If your playdough is too sticky, add a pinch more flour until it is the proper consistency. If it is too dry, add a few drops of water until it is the proper consistency.
Store in a sealed container, glass jar, etc. for days or even weeks of fun!
I use these amounts to make a single color, then repeat to create additional colors in separate bowls.
