More craft show preparations.....


I just love these...I think they are my favourite item that I have put together for this year's show.
It is a nice decorative box, filled with a gingerbread cookie mix, a really cute cookie bag for giving away your baked gingerbread cookies, a little glass jar filled with red candies (for decorating), an adorable stuffed gingerbread man (could hang him on the tree) and a decorative recipe card.
Maybe I will keep one for myself.....noooo I should really sell them all.....I could give one to my neighbour.....nooooo...I should really sell them all...ohhh, but they are so cute.......O.K. .....I will think about it....

Working on my craft show stuff....

I am a wee bit of a 'pack rat'...I have been saving these bottles for the perfect craft.
This is what I did with them...and I thought they looked so gorgeous sitting there in the November sun light...so I took some photos to share.
If they don't sell well at the craft sale, I might have to eat all the candy>@#!. ///; look out gym here I come....

Great package wrapping for the upcoming Holiday season. Wrap one of these package toppers around a cello bag filled with Christmas cookies.....add a little tag...and you are good to go.

Flower Power Teddie

Pecans, and tarts and more pecans


I just talked to a lovely lady in Texas who ordered pecan tarts and 5 dozen pecans. It's a wonderful story...she has pecans on her farm and harvesting pecans is a regular happening there. She gives bags of them as gifts...that's what she is using the 5 dozen crochet pecans for...to add to her pecan gift bags. What a wonderful idea....and would make a cute little gift.

I love walking into a house that smells of freshly baked cookies.


All the supplies you need to whip up some iced sugar cookies. The kids will love this set. They can pretend to roll out the dough, stamp out the cookies and then ice them. Loads of fun!
