Sweet-Smelling Crafts...



I found instructions for Cinnamon Ornaments in my issue of Martha Stewart Holiday Crafts magazine so my little girlfriend and I decided to try them out this afternoon. They were surprisingly easy to put together (I've had issues with making homemade salt dough ornaments before) though the process takes a long time (between waiting an hour for the dough to sit after its made, making the ornaments, and then baking them for two hours). Our little girl lost interest after they went in the oven, but I expect that she'll be excited when she sees them hanging from the cabinet doors in the morning! The smell is absolutely wonderful! Even the oven smells good hours later!

This looks like fun, we usually do the cookie clay ornaments but the scent of cinnamon is making me want to try these right now! :) Hope you're having a wonderful fall...
