Spice Ornaments or Magnets
3/4 cup ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons ground nutmeg
1 tablespoon ground cloves
2 tablespoons white glue
1 cup applesauce
1 straw
1/8-inch or 1/4-inch satin ribbon
Combine spices, glue and applesauce and mix until well blended. Mixture should
be stiff. Roll out to a 1/4-inch thickness on wax paper. Using small or medium-size
cookie cutters, cut dough into desired shapes. Peel away excess dough and re-roll
as necessary. If making ornaments, poke a hole at top of ornament with the straw.
Let ornaments dry uncovered for 2 or 3 days, turning them over several times
during the drying period.
After ornaments have dried, tie ribbon on top and place in sealed plastic
bag until ready to use. You can also decorate the ornaments with lace, glitter
or craft paints.
If using as magnets, attach a stick-on magnet to the back.
