It's that time of year (or was) for Christmas cookies! The cookies were done on time but updating the blog was not. The Christmas spirit cannot be avoided while decorating some festive cookies although maybe I should've had a holiday movie playing in the background.
It always makes me nervous to see the cookies looking nice out of the oven knowing they could all be messed up once the decorating starts. Just like what happened with the candy canes... those were scratched.
The snowmen make me happy :) I didn't know what to do with the arms so they were armless snowmen.
Mittens for a cold Christmas (not 78 degrees) :
Snowflakes:
And Christmas Trees:
I found a platter on sale at Joanns and combined it with a Dollar Tree candlestick holder to make it a cute cake pedestal. To balance it out and prevent toppling I also glued a clear CD to the bottom.
An added bonus, I sent my aunt cookies for her birthday. She lives in Texas and always sees my pictures online so I wanted to make her day with a special delivery.
