CINNAMON & CLOVE SALT-DOUGH ORNAMENTS RECIPE - (4.1/5)



Cinnamon & Clove Salt-Dough Ornaments Recipe - (4.1/5) image

Provided by [email protected]

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups flour
1 cup iodized table salt
2/3 cup ground cloves
2/3 cup ground cinnamon
1-1/4 cup water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200°F. In stand mixer, fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the flour, salt, cloves, and cinnamon on low speed until well combined. Slowly add the water until the dough starts to come together. Move the dough to a floured work surface and knead until the mixture is elastic and smooth. If the dough is too sticky, sprinkle it with a little flour until the stickiness is gone. (Be careful not to add too much flour, however, as it will dry out the dough and cause it to crack.) Using a rolling pin that's been dusted with flour, roll out the dough until it's about 1/4" thick. Then, use cookie cutters to cut the dough into shapes. Make a hole towards the top of each shape with a straw. Move the ornaments to an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 2 hours. Transfer the ornaments to a cooling rack and allow them to harden. (This could take one or two days.) After they're dry, you can decorate the shapes, if desired. Then, spray with a couple layers of shellac to preserve. When dry, thread a piece of ribbon through the hole at the top for hanging and tie.

Categories     Christmas

Time 8h10m

Yield 10 ornaments

Number Of Ingredients 2

1/2 cup ground cinnamon
1/2 cup store bought applesauce

Steps:

  • For decorating: Tulip puffy fabric paint in matte white, white acrylic paint, white glue, beads or glitter, cookie cutters.
  • Pour cinnamon in a bowl and gradually add applesauce and stir until mixture forms a stiff dough.
  • Using extra cinnamon as "flour" roll out the dough to 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick.
  • Cut out shapes with cookie cutters.
  • Using a straw or skewer punch a hole at the top of the ornament.
  • Bake at 200°F on a parchment lined baking pan.
  • Until ornaments are very dry and very hard.
  • Allow to cool to room temperature.
  • The Tulip paint looks exactly like Royal icing so you can make inedible"cookies" to decorate your tree with (like those big Martha Stewart ones).
  • They last a very long time and do not attract insects.
  • If you use a cookie cutter that will imprint a design on your "cookies" you can use a dry paint brush with white acrylic paint to give your "cookies" a powdered sugar look.
  • Or you can decorate your ornaments with beads and glitter to add sparkle to your holiday.
  • Bottom line: they are easy and inexpensive to make, plus they smell GREAT!

  • Prepare the cinnamon sticks: Use a sharp knife to trim the ends of the cinnamon sticks and remove any rough edges.
  • Use a strong glue: A hot glue gun is the best choice for attaching the cinnamon sticks together. You can also use a strong craft glue, but it will take longer to dry.
  • Be patient: It takes time to make cinnamon ornaments. Don't rush the process or you'll end up with ornaments that are not as sturdy or beautiful.
  • Have fun! Making cinnamon ornaments is a great way to get creative and festive. Enjoy the process and let your imagination run wild.
