Heart Cookies



Hearts in pink and purple :) I think these would be cute for Valentine's Day or for an anniversary. Pro-tip: when working with royal icing (of the meringue powder variety) the "flood icing" should be the consistency of paint or thick heavy cream before using to flood the cookies. :)

Flower Cookies






This is what I stayed up until 2am working on last night...it was a good test-run for the icing recipe. I've been searching for a good one for a few years and I think this one has definitely made the top 3, if not #1. :) Just waiting for these to 'set up' and dry so I can package them up.

Icey-Pop Holders


You'll have to forgive the blurriness of the photo...the little model was holding as still as he could, but my camera was jumping around :P But you get the idea of what it is- an icey-pop holder made from those $.25 felt squares you can get at the craft store, along with some embroidery thread. Super easy, takes less than 5 minutes to whip one up, and keeps their hands from getting cold! :)

P.S. Beware if you have boys, they might suddenly start acting like Star Wars characters with light sabers... you've been warned ;)

Odds & Ends Polymer Clay


You see...this is what happens when I just sit down with clay and don't necessarily have something specific in mind to make. I wind up with candies, a rose cake, robots and a carrot! No idea why that combination of things. hehehe :D But they are fun to make. :) I need to sit down and make a list of ideas so that next time I have a real goal!! :D
