Happy Monday everyone! I was looking forward to tonight's post since this morning! I am very picky when it comes to DIY projects because sometimes I feel like I can buy it for a cheaper price and not have to do any work. So why spend all your energy and effort on something you can buy? Now for this project I am about to share with you all is worth the effort!
1. It makes your house smell amazing!
2. It is cheap and affordable
3. Great to do with kids
4. It creates the perfect Christmas tree ornaments.
5. They make your house smell amazing even after they are on your tree
Also, here is a little tip.... make sure to tell your husband/dad/friend that they are ornaments and you cant eat them. My husband thought they were cookies and he found out the hard way.
What you need:
3/4 cup of applesauce
2 bottles of mccormick cinnamon (2.37 oz each)
Cookie Cutter
Drinking Straw
Ribbon
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 200°F. Mix applesauce and cinnamon in small bowl until a smooth ball of dough is formed. (You may need use your hands to incorporate all of the cinnamon.) Using about 1/4 of the dough at a time, roll dough to 1/4-inch to 1/3-inch thickness between two sheets of plastic wrap. Peel off top sheet of plastic wrap. Cut dough into desired shapes with 2- to 3-inch cookie cutters. Make a hole at top of ornament with drinking straw or skewer. Place ornaments on baking sheet
2. Bake 2 1/2 hours. Cool ornaments on wire rack. (Or, to dry ornaments at room temperature, carefully place them on wire rack. Let stand 1 to 2 days or until thoroughly dry, turning occasionally.)
3. Insert ribbon through holes and tie to hang. Decorate with opaque paint markers, found in arts and crafts stores, if desired.
xoxo,
Skyler
