Pumpkin Decorated Cookies {Easy Picture Tutorial}

Fall is in the air and I am LOVING it!! The leaves are starting to change here in DC and it is easily my favorite time of year. Plus fall means cookies.. so that's good. 

Because I promised to do a tutorial but haven't gotten around to it, I did a easy picture tutorial for you guys. This was an order for a Gender reveal party announcing the gender of their little 'pumpkin' (such a cute idea)! Her colors were gray, yellow and blue. 

Thanks for the order, Nicole! Congrats on baby boy :)

Halloween Cookies {hand painted}

First of all.. Let me apologize. HOLY COW. Yes, I am a total amateur photographer.. but these are just pathetic.  SERIOUSLY SAD. I need to take some classes or something. My pictures are usually okay when I have reeaalllly good lighting. But if it is overcast, I am doomed. Its madening because my cookies are so much brighter in real life, be it as it may.. here they are!

I LOVED doing these (have I used enough CAPS for you yet??). Halloween is my favorite holiday. Tied with Christmas of course. 

Here is my spidee cookie inspired by the incredibly talented sweet ambs. 

More cookies coming soon! Enjoy this gorgeous fall weather and wonderful week!

Secret Garden Cookies {Hand Painted}

I can't believe summer is gone! In honor of a great summer, I decided to do one last summer cookie set. These are all hand painted... channeling my inner Arty Mcgoo. Though I may not be quite as aaaamaaaaaaaaazing as she is, hopefully with some more practice painting cookies I'll get there! Try not to focus on the horrendous lighting (and poor photography skills) and just focus on the cookies (I hate overcast days!!)

Halloween cookies coming later this week! As for all of those who have emailed me with questions about a tutorial, I will be getting to that hopefully within the month!! Have a great fall week. 

Easy Paisley Bird Cookies {and roses too}

Finally had a chance to use my Ateco paisley cutters.. I LOVE them. And these were the easiest cookies on earth. 

Even though my husband says my finger looks deformed in this picture, I had to put it up to show how tiny this little bird is!

Happy decorating!

Tea Cup Cookies {for a tea party}

I LOOOVE painting on cookies. Seriously, it's one of my favorite things. Easy, and FUN.

So ENJOY!

Happy summer everyone!

Simple Summer Cookies {Beach Themed}

I love summer. I love the beach. I have a huge collection of sea shells that I collected as a little girl sitting in a box at my parents house. When my two year old found that box and proceeded to take almost every shell out and "listen" to the ocean, I knew I had to make some beach themed cookies (because EVERYTHING is better in cookie form, right?!).

Hope everyone is having a happy summer!

Calling all Followers and Friends!!

Hi guys,

So, I am taking the summer off for orders but I still plan on making cookies. I really want to do at least one tutorial so I'm asking for ya'lls input. If you could have me do one tutorial what would it be? I want to re-do my 'how to flood a cookie' tutorial, so I could do that, but I would be happy to take requests! So please leave your comments or feel free to email! I would love to start doing more tutorials on cookie basics as well as how to decorate with intricate details and different techniques.

much love friends!
