I purchased a big package of cinnamon sticks from Hobby Lobby a few months ago and have been so eager to try a DIY with them!

There are a lot of options with cinnamon sticks–you could try stars or squares or sticks painted like Santa.

These ornaments are easy to make, festive, and best of all–have a wonderful cinnamon smell. Each cinnamon stick will be a slightly different shape and size–which gives these ornaments a rustic, custom look. With the help of an adult using the glue gun, kids can help with the assembly too.

If you decide to try these, I’d love to hear how they turn out! Happy making!
