Lingerie cookies...oooo lala!

I finally was asked to make lingerie cookies for a bachelorette party this weekend!  These cookies have been on my "cookie bucket list" for awhile. 

I started with a medium sized heart.  I kept the hearts whole for the bras, and I cut the point off for the panties.  The heart served as the perfect shape for both top and bottom! 


 
 
 
I also included a large daisy shape with the bride's future last initial.  The chevron and polka dot pattern was done with an airbrush using a stencil.  I'm still practicing!!

 
 

Stay Sweet!

Tutus and Teacups- Brooklyn's 2nd birthday party

Today I celebrated Brooklyn's 2nd birthday with dear friends.  Last summer Beau and I joined a small group through our church.  We were unaware at the time just how wonderful these couples would be.  They have become a wonderful part of our lives.  One of the couples in our group has a sweet daughter, Brooklyn. 

She is a girly girl (just like me), and insists on wearing a tutu at all times.  The party's theme was tutus and teacups.  After Morgan (Brooklyn's mom) asked me to make cookies for the party, I immediately started thinking about designs. 

The party was absolutely precious!  After choosing a teapot and tea, we sat down to yummy tea sandwiches.  I choose this beautiful teapot and teacup because of the purple shade of the delicate roses. 

We played a rousing game of Princess Bingo.  I won (yay!) and got a box of English breakfast tea.  As you can see, our markers were fairy bites.  So yummy and cute! 


After going through multiple design ideas, I decided upon a twirling ballerina and a teacup with a "B".  I was thrilled at the final product!




Stay Sweet!

Summer Countdown

11 1/2 days y'all!  That is how many days I have left with my 19 sweeties.  I remember when they timidly walked into my classroom in August.  They have blossomed into independent (for the most part) and hilarious little people.  Each of them have unique personalities with special traits and qualities.  Even though summer is completely necessary (ask any teacher)...I have to say that I will miss my little darlings immensely. 

Anyways...my last order was for "something summery".  I decided on beach balls because of the sheer joy I get when I see one.  I donated cookies for a class celebration (for a school fundraiser), and one of my sweet families bought them for my class!  I'm so excited to share my "side gig" with my kiddos. 


I love the girly 80s colors.  Two of my favorite things!


Stay sweet!
