Gently Falling Holiday Treats

In need of a morning out with friends? We’re getting together in Winston Salem, NC at the Robinhood Road Family YMCA on September 6 for a fun Fall Treat Class. Come enjoy great demonstrations, creative treat ideas, and learn to create them yourself. The class is $20 and includes a supply list, step by step instructions, your treats, and three completed projects with a holiday idea for Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Can’t make the class, place a $50 order through my website and I’ll supply you with the instructions free!

Creative Tips:

1. Yes, these 1″ x 8″ Cellophane Bags are available in the upcoming Holiday Mini Catalog available September 1. Each has an adhesive seal at top to keep everything inside. What a bargain at 50 for $2.50!

2. Looking for a matching treat? The Hershey Cookies and Cream Drops are a perfect fit. One package will put together 10 projects with 8 treats each. Your child could share this cute idea with teachers and friends for the holidays.

3. The tags are attached with a little Linen Thread wrapped around the top and pulled tight through a matching button. A little ribbon for each project is just a must have in my book!

4. Create multiple cool autumn color combinations using the coordinating Spice Cake Designer Series Paper.
