Scented Cinnamon Ornaments

Ingredients:
1 cup cinnamon
1 Tbsp. cloves
1 Tbsp. nutmeg
1/2 cup applesauce
2 Tbsp. white glue
Ribbon

Directions:
In a bowl, mix the spices. Add applesauce and glue, stirring until well blended. Work mixture until dough is smooth and ingredients are thoroughly mixed. Divide into 4 portions and roll each portion on floured surface to 1/4-inch thickness.

Cut dough with cookie cutters of desired shapes. Using a straw or toothpick, make a small hole in the top of each ornament.

Place on wire racks and allow to dry at room temp for several days. (For more uniform drying, turn ornaments over once each day.)

Thread ribbon through holes to form garland. You can also glue to a wooden hoop, forming a wreath and decorate with ribbon as desired.

THIS RECIPE IS NOT FOR EATING!

Makes approximately 32 two-inch ornaments
