So, for years I've been wondering what to do with the stray cow bones from our farm that my husband "arranged" in this vintage cart on our porch. He so rarely attempts to decorate anything around the house that I didn't want to remove them lest I unintentionally thwart future (and better) home beautification efforts. So they've...
As you sit poolside sipping a summer cocktail and basking in the sun, fall may not be calling you just yet. But, I assure you, with the way time flies, it will be soon! So, to get you geared up for that active autumn cookie season, I've got a charming fall-themed stencil design to help make easy work of those upcoming orders. It features...
Aloe, beautiful cookiers! I told you my stencil releases were deviating from seasonal and going more trendy! While I'm a bit late to the boho macramé planter craze, there's no imminent threat of it disappearing any time soon. The look is just so darn cheerful and fun that it's sure to stick around for longer than most would predict. So, with that...
As I mentioned in last month's fairy princess release, I'm departing a bit from my usual seasonal releases, and adding a few more event-related and on-trend themes to my stencil mix. No unicorns or llamas though, I promise! There's a...
I so often guide my stencil release designs by the upcoming season or holiday, but NOT with this release! Instead, I've decided to change things up and augment my stencil line with...
This month's Dynamic Duos™ design, dubbed "Pretty as a Flower", combines one of my favorite places with one of my favorite people: Maine, where lupine and sweet peas grow wild with abandon, and my mom, who can be a bit wild at times too! The addition of...
After last week's polar vortex fiasco, I'm hopping as fast as I can into spring - and so is this month's Dynamic Duos™ design! The design, called "Hopping Into Spring" (of course, what else?!), is more...
This month's release is called "Chinese New Year," but I consider it more of an East-meets-West way of ushering in 2021. While its background of plum blossoms and auspicious messages of "Love", "Luck", "Hope", and "Peace" are...
It's almost that time to ring in the New Year, and I have the perfect celebratory drink for you! A dessert cocktail! Yes, these scrumptious delights by Artisan Craft Cocktails are...
Yeah, yeah, I know, it's not even Christmas yet, but here in cookie stencil-designing land, I'm already gearing up for the next best cookie holiday - Valentine's Day! Or wait - maybe Valentine's Day IS the...
Our homes have never been more important than in this unprecedented year. They've not only been the roofs over our heads, under which we routinely take shelter to eat and sleep; they've also been our workplaces, the schools for our kids, and the sanctuaries sought...
Wow - where did 2020 go? As much as I don't like how time flies faster with each passing year, I must say I'm eager to celebrate the conclusion of 2020. And what better way to usher it out than with a...
There’s no debating it: Halloween is one of the best, if not THE best, cookie seasons of the year - which is why I’ve got a second Halloween-themed release for you this month! This time, it’s a...
Even though I'm accustomed to designing stencils months ahead of their intended season, even I can't believe that I'm releasing Halloween stencils this month! Where, oh where, has this year gone? It's hard to account for...
I don't know about you, but I've been fantasizing about all the places I'd rather be than cooped up in my house under quarantine! What I would give for a return cookie class in the Dominican Republic, where I was...
