Cookie Baking Set




I am so excited to be done making this! I made this set for a friend of mine's daughter, Paige, whom Kiki affectionalty calls 'boo'. Her birthday is 6 weeks away, so I have it done plenty early, but figured hopefully I will be getting a head start on fall birthdays and Christmas coming up. I decorated the box with the cover saying 'Paige's sweet shop'. Inside is a mini pink polka dot apron with a small pocket perfect for stashing a cookie in, an oven mitt, and piece of raw 'dough' with a rolling pin, a heart shaped cookie cutter, two unbaked cookies, and two finished frosted cookies. The cookie cutter is the same size as the cookies, so she can actually pretend to cut them out. I made up the pattern for the apron also, everything I found online was much too complicated for the apron I had envisioned. I used 2 D rings for the neck strap in hopes that it would be able to fit longer. I have also started on another version of this kit for my own son's birthday in 4 weeks, and I am loving making this so much I have already wondered who else would like one for Christmas?!

Thank you! I will go check out nature girl and watch for a swap. The sprinkles on the frosting are just tiny stitches with embroidery floss, since I didn't want a two year old eating beads off the cookies.

Adorable!! You are very creative and talented! Have you thought of opening a store on Etsy to sell your creations?

Beth said...

Yes, the next kits I make will be for etsy. I thought I would make these two sets first to allow myself any mess ups! I am hoping to get some felt food sets up with planty of time before Christams, but don't worry I will let you know!
