Grungy Cinnamon Sticks

Time to get grungy again, don't you think? I swear, getting grungy is kind of like a prim addiction. LOL This time I've made some Grungy Cinnamon Sticks.

Grungy Cinnamon Sticks
These Grungy Goods are made the same way I make pretty much anything else that I decide to grungy up. Just dip them into some melted, scented wax and then roll in cinnamon. Let them set until you've done all the sticks you want to do. Then dip them into the melted wax again in order to seal them. My little tip on the sealing step: don't dip them all the way down into the melted wax, as this will often cause all the cinnamon to come right back off; instead, use some metal tongs to quickly dip one side of the sticks in the wax, then let that dry, and then turn them over and do the other side. Dip quickly too--don't hold the sticks down in the wax for more than a second or two. You will lose a lot less cinnamon if you do it this way.

These grungy cinnamon sticks are great as Primitive Bowl Fillers. You can put them in a bowl all by themselves, but they look great as an accent with other things, like rosehips, or even Dough Ornies.
