It's Tradition

My Grandma (dad's side) always makes Italian cookies during the winter holidays.  Every year all the grand kids would come to assist grandma in the making (and eating) of the various cookies.  My favorite ones to make is the Pizzelle.  A couple of years ago I bought my very own Pizzelle maker, and now I've been continuing the tradition at my home.  This year I wrapped them and gave them as hostess gifts.

 First I wrapped them in plastic wrap. I think next year I will use the shrink wrap.

Next I made a few 3 inch hole punches and stamped them with a Reindeer and Snowflake stamps.

Finally I wrapped the stack with a single ribbon and pasted the reindeer circular card on top.

I use this recipe, and you can find Pizzelle makers on this website.

Hope to continue this tradition for years to come...

More Baby Hats

I recently made 5 hats for my friend Kara, and they all turned out so adorable. I continued making more hats after I was finished with her order, and here are a few shots.

The Yellow earflap hat went to my pal Leigh Ann's little one, and the Violet one went to my pal Jinger's one (still in the oven so kitty is wearing it :) ).

Here are a few without the ear flaps. These haven't found homes yet... but I am sure they will.

I am currently making one more earflap hat in pink for 3 year old sister Sasha's baby dolls. Then I am making mittens for my 7 year old sister Sophie (pink), 5 year old brother Oliver (red), and a set for Sasha (pink). :)


hugs,
