In the Christmas spirit...

Last night I was definitely in the Christmas spirit and handled some pretty hard-cord multi-tasking as well. I mean, it takes a little talent to make Christmas cookies and Christmas shop (online!) at the same time! :) I had to call customer service about one of my orders (the discount wasn't applying to certain items!), and had to explain the racket I was making taking pans out of the oven!

 I saw Martha Stewart do something really neat with the icing on bells, so that's what I made this time...

First, I iced them with a layer of white icing:

 Then I added green stripes (also did some red ones, too). I just put some icing in a sandwich bag and cut a teeny hole in the corner and used as my icing bag! Then you run a toothpick through the stripes...

 And it makes this design:

 Here are some of the finished products:

 I also made a few snowmen just for fun...

 They didn't turn out as cute as I thought they would, but here they are...

Hope each of you can find time in this busy season to try some fun activities!!
