CINNAMON ORNAMENTS

Steps:

• 1. Mix the first 2 ing. well & then add the glue. mix well. Roll out on a cinnamon covered surface with a rolling pin covered with cinnamon to about 1/4 ". Cut out with cookie cutters. We do gingerbread boys, gingerbread girls, hearts, stars & snowflakes. Using a small straw, etc. put a hole in the top to hang. I line a sheet pan with parchment paper, lay them on and leave to dry. I turn them everyday & it takes apx. 3-4 days to day. After they are dry, we decorate them with puff paints, glitter paints, & on the snowflakes we also use the sparkle snow glitter. Your house smells so good when they are drying. We have been making these for years, & have some on almost all of our 7 trees. Hope you all enjoy!

• Cut out shapes with cookie cutters [x-mas tree, hearts, stars, etc].
• Make a hole in the top with a wooden or metal skewer, this must be large enough for ribbon if you want them for hanging.
• Air dry them for several days on paper kitchen towel, turning them over several times so they don't warp.
• Impatient?.
• A low oven [200°F] for a few hours will also do the trick, don't forget to turn them over.
• When dry, decorate with a ribbon.
• You can also use shallow plaster, cookie and candy molds, press the dough in the cavity, smooth with a rolling pin, ease out of the mold and cut away the excess dough.
• Or roll out the dough, place a piece of decorative lace on the top, using the rolling pin go over it until it has left an impression of the lace, then cut out using the cookie cutters.
• You also get a nice result using cookie stamps.
