• a straw (to poke a hole for hanging)
• spoon, bowl, measuring cup
• ribbon, pipe cleaner or yarn for hanging

Mix the applesauce and cinnamon together to make the dough. Form loosely into a ball. Note: If the dough is too wet, add more cinnamon. If it is too dry, add more applesauce. It should have a pleasant, spongy texture and be easy to work with. Place the ball between two pieces of wax paper and roll it out to about ¼ of an inch. Use your favorite holiday cookie cutters to cut out the ornaments. Poke a hole at the top of each ornament with a straw. Let the ornaments air dry for 48 hours before handling.
