holiday cookies
From basic sugar varieties to elaborate gingerbread
creations, holiday cookies are fun and festive gifts for the season.
Nestle them into a decorative box, reminiscent of a pretty tin, and do
the same for a joyous gathering of carnations. A gingerbread-inspired
doll easily adds on as well.
Materials: carnations and Galax
leaves courtesy of FTD Flower Exchange; Merry and Mod Boxes, Ornament
Cookies and Yummy Yuletide Yarnball Buddy from burton + BURTON;
cellophane from Highland Supply Corporation; Ultimate Liner from
FloraCraft.
