Kits & Cookies

TODAY IS THE DAY!

I'm so excited because today is the day that the Joli Paquet holiday kits go on sale! My Sweet Vintage Wreath Kit is pictured above and features a sweet image from a vintage German postcard that I found on one of my trips to the flea market. I loved that the one girl has a fur muff because I used to have one like it when I was a little girl. The little wreath is all done up in pinks & greens and embellished with buttons, gingham, glitter and glass beads from

a vintage Christmas garland. Quantities are limited so don't delay!

You can find this kit in my Etsy Shop by clicking here.

I've restocked my shop with some new Christmas items (shown above). Also, while sorting through my craft room, I came across enough supplies to put together a few of the kits I was selling for last year's Joli Paquet Holiday Event so I've listed them in the shop too for tose of you who missed out.

The rest of the Joli Paquet artists - Lilia, Brandy, Melissa, Cerri, Cindy and Jenny - have designed some adorable kits too and you can find links to their shops here.

Another event you should check out today is Scrappy Jessi's "3rd Annual Cookie Exchange" that she's hosting on her blog. I've participated in this event in previous years and it's a great way to get some new cookie recipes. Here is my recipe:

I think I might make these for a real life cookie exchange I am going to later this month.

Have fun shopping and baking today!
