Christmas Tree Ornament

I got this idea from my friend Shannon. She had one like it hanging on her tree.
Kieran and I had so much fun making this together! If you're going to attempt this you'll need some good scissors to cut the Popsicle sticks. ;)

Supplies:
Popsicle sticks(we used one larger tongue depressor type for the trunk).
Pipe cleaners
Green paint
Glue

That's it! Super simple. I already had all of these things in our craft box so it was great.
Of course you can do this a number of ways...you don't have to go by the way we did.

Cinnamon and Applesauce Ornaments

The boys and I had a lot of fun making these and they smell oh so good!

Here's what you'll need:

Cinnamon- enough for about 2 cups
1 large jar of applesauce
Cookie cutters
Parchment or wax paper

Mix equal parts of applesauce and cinnamon in a bowl:

Have a little taste if you'd like:

Mix until it's a dough consistency:

Roll it out with your hands and/or rolling pin onto the wax or parchment paper:

Use cookie cutters to cut fun shapes:

Use a straw to make holes in the tops:

Then let dry over night:

After they dry, thread ribbon through the holes and hang from your Christmas tree!
