Christmas tree-shaped sugar cookies covered with white royal icing get a botanical makeover with edible flower petals. Scottish flowers in hues of blue, purple and orange, create a bright and unexpected color palette for the holidays. 

Emergency Party Kits for Guests

Have a great weekend!

Last week, we worked on some DIY Halloween Games and this week, we wanted to continue the theme with some more party paraphernalia – with these handmade candy corn popcorn paper cone holders. This is quite an easy craft and a great touch for a night full of spooky movies. And, because it’s so simple, you can make them in any quantity. Here’s how it’s done!

Actually, that may be a bit misleading. Because, none of the three ideas actually involves any tails. Oops. Today we’ve got pin the eye on the mummy’s face, the spider on it’s web and the ghost’s mouth on it’s face. Here’s how it’s done!

It’s been all about follow ups and customer requests, off late at The Craftables workshop. Last week, we made a clay pen holder for some pens we made a while back. And this week, by request, we are sharing a second set of free printable wrapping paper (check out the first, ombre pink set here). For this one, we went with a classic navy blue strip print, matching it with various block colors. It’s a very standard print that you can use for any occasion and for anyone.  Click on this link to download and use the paper.
