 Krylon, wouldn't that attract them?  For that matter, I wonder if the
 spices themselves would be attractive to them?

	It can be a problem to some extent--I've had critters nibble on my rose beads
before. But I haven't heard of any problems with the cinnamon ornaments
before, so I would imagine that the spices can act as a deterant. Also, you'd
want to store them in something when not in use, anyway, so choosing something
bug-proof would help. If you decided on zip bags, going for the freezer weight
ones would be a good idea--they tend to work better against chewing.
