Cinnamon Ornaments (Non-edible)

By á-3503

This is a fun and easy craft project to do with children. If you store them in a plastic container between seasons they will continue to smell wonderful for a lot of years!

Ingredients

• 1 c. ground cinnamon
• 1 Tbsp. ground cloves
• 1 Tbsp ground nutmeg
• 3/4 c. applesauce
• 2 Tbsp. white glue

Preparation

Step 1

In a bowl, stir together the cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg. Mix in the applesauce and glue. Work the mixture with your hands 2-3 minutes to form a ball. If the mixture seems too wet, add more cinnamon. If the mixture seems too dry, add more applesauce.

Roll out the dough to 1/4 inch thickness on either wax or parchment paper. Cut out shapes with cookie cutters, and use a drinking straw to make a hole at the top for hanging with a ribbon

Dry in a slow oven at 200 degrees for 3-4 hours. Let cool and insert a ribbon at the top.
