Cookie Day Gingerbread

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

We recently had Cookie Day at my house.

I wish I could post the fabulous smells and sounds.

  One of my girls had suggested that we should

all have Christmas aprons for Cookie Day.  My apron pattern and cross stitch 

Merry Christmas patterns are both AWOL so I decided to find aprons at the thrift store.

I was able to find lots of aprons in Christmas colors and they just needed a little 

something extra.  When I saw this die, I knew it was the perfect addition to

our Christmas aprons.

I found the felt locally and got a bunch cut out.  I also found the bow buttons and

ordered the peppermint candies with the die. They were quick and easy to stitch up

while watching tv.  I added the decorations with thick tacky glue, put a hanger

on each and safety pinned them to the aprons with instructions to remove the

gingerbread man before washing the apron.

Here's the assortment of gingerbread people...

And here I am with my girls...

Becky brought her sisters some snarky oven mitts.

It's best you can't see what Kelli's says!

The grandchildren are getting too big to enjoy the gingerbread decorating but our sweet

neighbors were glad to step in.  They had so much fun and we had fun watching them and 

of course had to sample their work.

I hope you have a sweet day.

Enjoy!
