Scented Cinnamon Cutouts

Place these anywhere, they are like potpourri!

What you will need:

10 tbsp. hot applesauce
5 oz. cinnamon
Holiday-shaped cutters
Optional - other spices

Method:

1. Other spices may be used too (ginger, allspice, etc.). Mix together, if dry add more sauce. If wet, add more spice. Makes a great non-sticky dough. Very workable.

2. Sprinkle work area with spice and rolling pin. Roll dough 1/4" thick. Cut into desired shapes. Holiday shapes, houses, ginger people, apples, bears, hearts, etc.

For Ornaments: Cut out with a straw a little hole on top. Place cut outs on a screen. Let dry 6 to 7 days. Almost feels like driftwood. Paint if you wish. Be creative.

Example: Ginger people. I use white dimensional paint, looks like icing. Glue ribbon to them, hang them up in a favorite spot. Glue magnets on back. Personalize ornaments. Use mini cutters, make gift tags.
