Handmade Christmas stockings

 

Made last year for our amazing Gus 

 

Made 8 years ago, improving slowly.

 

Made 10 years ago when I was just experimenting with Christmas Craft!

 

If you are having guests for Christmas but have no time to make them a stocking from scratch, buy a stocking you love that you can seamlessly add a name to for a homemade welcome.

Birthday Cake Rocket launch pad

I built a rocket for a birthday cake out a large clear plastic toy test tube with a red cap. Can you see it?  

Find a cake with a circular pattern in the center, or better yet, make it the way you'd like so your launch pad is a good size for your rocket, and then all you need is the swirly candles you can find at most local grocery stores.
