- As much as we love Christmas, there’s no denying all that decorating, baking and gift wrapping can be a really stressful at times. As our gift to you, we have sifted through some FYIs you might enjoy:A quick ribbon-wrap turns holiday baking supplies into trendy tree baubles. Find some cute holiday ribbon and wrap a cookie cutter with it; you’ll be able to reuse the set to shape cookies next year. We might still have some available too!
- This Christmas Cherub is just adorable. She will be great for a Secret Santa gift, or to add to a hostess gift! Christmas Cherub
- Have a pet, or a friend has a new pet, make this adorable stocking and fill it with goodies for them! Dog Paws Christmas
- If you’re looking for a traditional appetizer that’s exceptionally delicious and easy to make and equally good all year, try these Shrimp. I cheat and use cooked shrimp so these only need to be heated up, Punch up their flavor by tossing medium-sized shrimp in olive oil, spices, Parmesan, and fresh garlic. Then roast the shrimp in the oven and serve them with cocktail sauce…. yum!
