Cinnamon Scented Ornaments!:)
Materials
1 cup of regular applesauce (not the chunky kind)
1 1/2 cups of ground cinnamon
1/3 cup of white glue
Different types of decorative cutters
Disposable straw
Colored ribbon
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, stir together ingredients. Form the mixture into a ball, wrap it in plastic and chill for at least 30 minutes until the "dough" stiffens.
Sprinkle more cinnamon on a cutting board or a waxed-paper-lined surface, and turn the chilled dough onto it. Dust a rolling pin with cinnamon and use it to roll out the dough to a 1/4-inch thickness (if it's thinner than that, the ornaments will be too fragile).
Cut out decorative shapes with assorted cookie cutters or a butter knife, then use a plastic drinking straw to make a hole through the top center of each cutout.
Let the ornaments air-dry completely before stringing them with ribbon.
Variations:
String several ornaments together with twine and beads for a sweet-smelling holiday garland.
