A great little treat for little ones in your life – fill a bag with bubbles and a blow pop and make a nice card for the top. Would make a great treat for school kids or for parties. These would work for party favors for a kids party as well.
Great for Valentines Day – would be great for treat bags for kids at school or parties or for families and friends!
Thanksgiving Day Pilgrim Cookie
~Turn fudge stripped cookies upside down
~Hold Reece’s candy with the top facing down and pipe icing on the top of cookie
~Stick the Reece’s on top of icing
~Pipe orange icing around base to make a nice finish and add a buckle design on the front
~Use a small zip lock bag with tip cut off to pipe for these cookies and save money by not using the expensive icing bags
~Instead of fudge stripped cookies use the cookie parts of Oreo’s and enjoy the insides while preparing these cookies
Do you love this wreath? Create it yourself with little time or money. This is made from a small/medium grape vine wreath purchased at your local craft store. You will need a small American flag and a variety of red, white and blue flowers in various sizes. Insert stem of your first flower into the grape vine and pull and tuck the stem in the back. Continue doing this with colors as you move around the wreath. You can permanently affix the flowers with florist wire in the back. Finally stick your flag in and hang.
Go overboard with red, white and blue for your table settings – and do so on a budget. Use canning jars or mix and match vases and jars from thrift stores and make a simple arrangement like these that have real red, white and blue blossoms in them with darkly tinted water to really pull your eyes into the arrangement. Don’t forget to mix up red, white and blue plates, bowls, napkins and table cloths. As pictured use edible red white and blue as well – this looks great and everyone will want a taste at the same time.
