I tried this last year and was quite surprised.you take cinnamen and applesauce and make a dough out of it and roll it out.I used gingerbread men&tied some checkered cloth on neck and used rasions for buttons.I made a door hanging with one on a wreath has like 8 gingerbread men and cinnamon sticks broke& tied on it and threaded a red checkerd ribbon& gave as a gift.i stuck some cinnamon broom in places on the sides too.you just need a small amount of applesauce then stir in the cinnamon till thick& doughy& use cinnamon to flour surface as the flour will show up.i laid out to dry in sun,but if you do with raisons the birds will eat them.you can spray with clear paint to help preserve them

I did add a lil to the nd batch when i mixed it up i went to $store and got 2 for $1 cinnamon& $1 jar applesauce which you don't need much applesauce. my 1st rool out i used flour and it left marks on the mixture.i tried water painting them out but not enough.2nd roll out used cinnamon.it still seemed a bit sticky so maybe the flour mixed in would help but not very much& will have to mix in with the cinnamon 1st.I dug out in christmas stuff and they were stored in ziplock bags in a box and they still smell,the bottom one broke his leg.I may add some clove powder to some and make a few more

My 5-year-old and I made some this week. We decorated them with glitter glue designs, threaded them with gold and silver elastic thread and made napkin rings for the Thanksgiving table that our guests can take home and use for Yule ornaments!
