I've been buying supplies and making wreaths getting ready for the craft shows this fall. Here are a few of my newest.
My daughter had gluten issues all summer, so I could not do my normal baking. Our church's bake sale gave me the perfect opportunity to create my favorite summer treats. I adjusted the watermelon cookies recipe slightly, but here's a link for directions on making them. They were really cute in the packaging I found at HomeGoods.
I also love making these Sunflower cupcakes!
My daughter said they looked like mini-cupcakes, but they were just smaller than usual. I don't know how they all did at the bake sale, but I was glad to get some baking out of my system! Here's the instructions for the sunflower cupcakes. It also works great for poinsettia cupcakes at Christmas too.

I also make these Coconut Lime cookies that were wonderful! Check them out and this link for the recipe.

Here is a new wreath for the Fall! This is a huge wreath. Fun to make and fun on the door! It's over 35 inches wide and really pops!
Here are a few of the Summer Wreaths. I love working with Deco Mesh and with the jute ribbon. I've see some quick ways to make jute/burlap ribbon wreaths, but I "sew" them onto a wire wreath frame with wire so they are more durable when I add additional decorations. Hope you like them. I have more new Fall wreaths coming up soon!
