Spice rope craft project.

Country Craft Projects - Spice Ropes

Materials: Raffia or yarn scraps; calico or gingham fabric scraps; scissors; spices (cinnamon, clove, etc.).

Instructions:

1. Using several strands of either raffia or yarn, make a 2 1/2 foot braid and tie off ends in knots so they don't unravel.

2. Cut small pieces of the fabric into circles about 4 1/2" in diameter.

3. Place cinnamon, clove or other desired spices in center of circles, gather fabric and tie with yarn or raffia.

4. Make several of these spice pouches and evenly spaced, tie them to the braid for a scented country kitchen decoration.
