Cinnamon Ornaments



INGREDIENTS & SUPPLIES:
1 Cup Cinnamon Powder
1/4 Cup Applesauce
1/2 Cup White Glue
Mixing Bowl
Rubber Spatula
Measuring Cups
Rolling Pin
Cookie Cutters
Straw
Paint/Glitter
Paintbrush
Ribbon/Twine

DIRECTIONS:
1. Mix Cinnamon Powder, Applesauce, and White Glue in a bowl with the rubber spatula, then let stand for about an hour.

2. Roll out the dough.

3. Use cookie cutters to cut out different shapes or you could even do hand prints of your kids!

4. Lay them on a cookie sheet to dry.

5. Use the straw to poke holes at the top of each ornament.

6. Flip the ornaments every so often while they are drying.

7. Once completely dry decorate the ornaments with paint and glitter.

8. Tie a piece of ribbon or twine on the top and hang on your tree or attach to a gift!


*I did this with my 2 year old son. I mixed the dough and cut out all the trees. I painted them all green and let him put the "decorations" on each tree. We will be keeping one and giving the rest as gifts to family and friends!

Mickey Mouse Birthday Party

Goodie Bags...
I bought small plain red and black gift bags then used my cricut machine to cut out black and pink mickeys.

Birthday Poster...
Made with my Cricut machine and my Mickey Mouse cartridges.

Pin The Nose On Mickey Mouse...
I hand drew the Mickey then used my Cricut to cut out the noses. I also wrote each kids name on a nose so we knew whose was whose when we played.

Birthday Tee Shirt...
I bought a plain white tee shirt from Target and bought a personalized iron on from an Etsy shop.
