If I may ask, do you put up a Christmas tree, hand mistle toe, or have wreaths, if so, these ARE Pagan symbols. The Christians stole many traditions from the Pagans.

I admire the fact you know Jesus wasn’t born on Christmas – the idea of him being born on December 25th, the Russian and Greek Orthodox would differ. They celebrate Christmas and New Years a week later.

You are wholeheartedly welcome, dearest Inky. It was a joy to put this post together and to bask in the light of inspiration myself during the process.

I know that I’ll be referring back to this entry over the years and hope to make some of the projects highlighted here – including my own batch of cinnamon dough ornaments (I wonder, will they still retain some of their beautiful, telltale scent in 25+ years time?).

Big hugs & the happiest of wishes for the final days of this year,
♥ Autumn

You’re sincerely welcome, my sweet friend. It warms my heart to know that this post sparked nostalgia for you as well. Thank you for sharing about your fond memories of making salt dough. After putting this post together, I feel like its high time I made a (GF) batch of it and/or cinnamon ornament dough myself next festive season. 🥰

Many hugs & the happiest of festive season wishes,
♥ Autumn
