But I'm back, and have been spending the week finishing my "to-do" list around the apartment (which, of course, includes using the AMAZING vacuum we received for Christmas this year!)
Anyway, I haven't cooked anything earth-shattering lately, because, honestly, my New Year's resolution is to lose some weight, and I haven't found any good ones to try out yet. And I've been avoiding the Food & Drink page on Pinterest because it's just too tempting.
But cinnamon is a food, so I figure, here's my Cinnamon Stick Wreath that I made right before Christmas. I'd seen lots of pictures, but no tutorials, so I just gave it a shot!:
You Need:
Styrofoam Wreath form
Cinnamon sticks (I used 2.5 bags from Michaels)
Ribbon
Hot glue + hot glue gun
It's pretty simple. I glued 2 layers of cinnamon sticks around the wreath. You could get a bigger form and more sticks for a bigger effect. After the 2 layers, I filled in the gaps where I could still see the Styrofoam underneath. Then, wrap the ribbon around the top and tie a bow, and hang! I used the removable hook "stickers" that come with the hooks to hang on the door. It's done!
