Storing Your Homemade Play Dough

Because this no cook playdough recipe’s primary ingredient is conditioner, it tends to last a little longer than food-based playdoughs. After play, store your playdough in an air tight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. If the playdough consistency changes during storage, then follow directions below to fix your homemade playdough!

Since not all hair conditioners are the same consistency, you may need to alter the amounts just a bit so it is dough consistency:

• Play dough consistency is not soft enough: Add additional hair conditioner at any step to adjust the softness.
• Play dough consistency is too soft: Add some additional cornstarch and knead into dough.

Cloud Dough Playdough Recipe

Think of this as a mix between playdough and cloud dough. It is light and airy like cloud dough, but molds better as the conditioner helps the cornstarch become more pliable.
