Number Of Ingredients 3

1 cup(s) cinnamon
3/4 cup(s) (cheap) applesauce
2 tablespoon(s) elmers school glue

Steps:

  • 1. Min Cinnamon and applesauce, add glue and mix well.
  • 2. Sprinkle some cinnamon on the counter and roll out the dough. I rolled mine out about 1/4 inch thick. cut out with your favorite cookie cutter. Make a hole in the top of your ornament for hanging.
  • 3. Place them on a cooling rack for 48 hours.
  • 4. I used a 4x3 gingerbread cutout and got 8 ornaments, just so you kinda know how many one batch will make. I also bought my cinnamon at Sams club, its cheap there for a big amount.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cinnamon sticks: Look for cinnamon sticks that are smooth, unbroken, and have a strong, sweet aroma. Avoid sticks that are cracked or splintered.
  • Prepare your cinnamon sticks: Before using, rinse the cinnamon sticks under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel.
  • Use a sharp knife: When cutting the cinnamon sticks, use a sharp knife to ensure clean, even cuts.
  • Be careful when working with cinnamon oil: Cinnamon oil is a potent essential oil that can cause skin irritation. Wear gloves when handling the oil and avoid contact with your eyes and mouth.
  • Store your cinnamon ornaments properly: Once your cinnamon ornaments are complete, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Conclusion:

Cinnamon ornaments are a beautiful and festive way to decorate your home during the holidays. They are also a great way to use up leftover cinnamon sticks. With a little creativity, you can create a variety of unique and personalized ornaments that will add a touch of warmth and spice to your holiday décor.
