Sand Paper Gingerbread Ornament
Use these free directions and pattern to create a cute singerbread boy out of sand paper. A great Christmas tree ornament or gift.

Materials Needed:
  • Sand Paper
  • Cinnamon Stick
  • Glue
  • Misc. Supplies (listed below)
Instructions:
Use the pattern below to cut out 2 gingerbread man shapes. Trace the pattern onto the back of one piece of sand paper. Turn the pattern over, and trace it onto the back of the another sheet of sand paper. Cut out the gingerbread men.

Glue the 2 gingerbread men together so the rough side is out. Scrape the cinnamon stick over the sand paper to make it smell sweet!

Give your gingerbread man a face and other features using whatever you have on hand. You can use small candies, rick-rack, felt scraps, construction paper, white paint (to look like frosting), etc.
