Once dry, they can be decorated with acrylic paint or even cookie decorations, like the ones my nephews, sisters, and I did here. They smell delicious and look so pretty on the tree. The smell will last a couple years, and you can refresh it with a few drops of cinnamon essential oil so they can last indefinitely. Have fun and Merry Christmas! I don't think it needs to be said, but I'll say it anyway: These are NOT edible. Decoration only. http://www.grouprecipes.com/79955/cinnamon-ornaments.html One way to save money and have a fun afternoon during a cold and rainy fall/winter day is to make playdough.

Not all brands will call them by this name. In fact most of them still call them simple dinner rolls. If you think about it for a moment you will remembr as close as only a few years ago, they were still the most popular shaped roll to serve in restaurants with main entrees. They puff up in 3 sections on top while baking. You can usually find them in the fresh breads section. They are not refrigerator rolls. http://www.grouprecipes.com/66837/chef-hats.html This will be great for the holidays it is so pretty... a great decoration for your table http://www.grouprecipes.com/53167/cranberry-candle-float.html This a holiday kissing ball made with cranberries and mistletoe http://www.grouprecipes.com/53164/holiday-kissing-ball.html Hot cocoa with all the trimmings (mini marshmallows, chocolate chips, and a cherry-red gumdrop) sports an even sweeter look packaged as a cone.
