Make All-Season Ornaments From Cinnamon Dough - They're Not Just For Christmas!
Nothing says 'home' quite like the aroma of baked goods laced with cinnamon, and the scent of cinnamon makes any home smell fresh and inviting. While you may associate cinnamon scented ornaments with the holiday season, you can use them all year round to bring a fresh down home feeling to your kitchen, pantry or a sunny window. They're easy to make and cheaper than store-bought fragrances that are full of chemicals and additives.
Gather your Supplies & Make Some Dough
You can whip up a batch of cinnamon dough ornaments with items that you have around the kitchen every day. Measure out one cup of cinnamon and one cup of applesauce. You'll also need a larger plastic zipper-top bag, cookie cutters for whatever shapes you'd like to make, a pair of scissors and narrow ribbons for hanging your finished creations. If you want to add other decorative touches to your project, you'll also need plastic craft eyes, latex craft paint, a fine tip artist brush, clear drying glue and faux gems and colored glitter.
The dough is very easy to make. Simply place the applesauce and cinnamon in the zip-up bag and need the mixture until a soft dough forms. As soon as the ingredients are well combined, the dough is ready to use. Roll it out on a cutting board to roll into pinwheels or cut into shapes. You can make whatever shapes or trinkets you can imagine. Cookie cutters in the shape of stars, animals, flowers or geometric shapes are just a few of the possibilities.
Cinnamon Scented Dough Ornament Ideas
Try making sparkling pinwheel ornaments to fill any room with the enticing aroma of cinnamon. Arrange your cinnamon ornaments in a pretty glass or ceramic bowl with a handful of cinnamon sticks or potpourri for a unique table top accessory.
To make the ornaments, start by rolling the dough out so that it is about one-quarter inch thick. Sprinkle your choice of colored glitter on top of the dough and roll it up tightly. Trim off the ends and slice the rolled dough vertically to make ornaments. Allow the ornaments to dry for at least twenty-four hours then display them in a bowl, glass vase, or clear coffee cup.
Make bears, stars, flowers, cats, dogs, cows and more with cookie cutters. Don't limit yourself to cookie cutter shapes, however. You can cut out simple shapes like sailboats and birdhouses with a knife. Embellish cinnamon dough animals with plastic eyes and use thin licorice for whiskers, or you can paint features on the crafts with latex craft paint. Lightly press colored or metallic glitter into the dough while it is still pliable for stars, flowers or other shapes. Or, instead of glitter, add clear drying cement and affix faux gems after the dough has dried. You can also embellish your creations with buttons, beads, seashells and stones. If you want to hang your creations with ribbon, create a hole for the ribbon with an ordinary drinking straw. Always allow finished ornaments to dry completely before handing them. Hang groups of ornaments threaded with ribbon and use them as sun catchers in a kitchen window, or hang them from a door, a shelf peg or below a cupboard. When embellished with glitter or gems, they will add sparkle and the soothing scent of cinnamon throughout the house.
