Have made over 3,000 gingerbread men. I line a cookie sheet with foil and then wax paper to keep the cinnamon smell going into the finish of the cookie sheet and it won't wash off.

I didn't use the glue, either. I rolled them a little thinner and flipped them as they dried. They last for years, and to refresh the smell next year, just lightly sand them. So cool that you did them with your class. (BTW, I bought cinnamon in bulk from Frontier Co-op Spices.)Amandahttp://www.myglutenfreemiami.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6584652251625653115.post-72004612495675752672016-11-28T11:42:19.927-05:002016-11-28T11:42:19.927-05:00I made these in 2005 with the handicapped individu...I made these in 2005 with the handicapped individuals I worked with but we only used cinnamon and applesauce, I bet the glue would make them stronger, though I think I've only had one break. We decorated them with glitter glue (great for adding the year made) and I have a few I pack with my ornaments and also with my garlands, etc. Keeps down the musty smell of storage, and every year, I'm still surprised when I open the container and you can still smell the cinnamon!

Every Christmas, as I put it on my tree, I think about those sweet little ones and how excited they were as they delivered their gifts to each of us. And it still smells "cinnamonny" even after all these years!JavaJanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12479578240632801862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6584652251625653115.post-81840818571702103962014-11-01T14:22:39.445-04:002014-11-01T14:22:39.445-04:00I love these ornaments.
