Corny title but it kept running through my head so I went with it!
Made another vintage paper wreath. It was meant to be used on the mirror in the sunroom but I liked the way it looked in the den (actually it looked good over the mantel too!)
Also, last year I saw some beautifully dipped pinecones in a yummy color so I kept that idea in my inspiration file and yesterday I dipped my own! Only problem is they are still kinda wet, hope they dry out before Christmas! I made a whole bunch of them and plan to put them (along with some white sprayed ones) in my big dough bowl in the dining room.

And finally I made my first egg custard pie! All you bakers out there probably can’t believe that I just admitted this. I always loved the egg custard at Morrison’s Restaurant but I never tried making one. The other night my son called and casually mentioned he wished someone would make him one. So I searched the internet for a quick and easy egg custard pie and found a recipe. I’ll post the recipe later.
We’re heading to the lake house today for our annual family Christmas party. My sister and I decided we’d just do spaghetti, salad and garlic bread with all kinds of desserts.
Happy Weekend!
Your wreath is delightful and I have Mr. Buck all berried up. Richard from My Old Historic House.
ReplyDeleteThe wreath is so pretty. Love this look! It looks great over the mirror. I also really like your color dipped pine cones. They would look great on my peacock and red tablescape.
ReplyDeleteYour wreath is fabulous. I love it, but that mirror just takes my breath away. It is wonderful. Have fun with your family. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteEverything looks lovely and the wreath is a nice touch. Have a great time at the Lake House. MERRY CHRISTMAS!
ReplyDeleteJudy- I hope you have a wonderful time at the cottage! I haven't made custard pie in years and years. My Dad loved it...that and gingerbread cake!
ReplyDeleteI like the dipped pine cones. The color is gorgeous and your wreath is lovely, too. Happy Weekend- xo Diana
Pretty, pretty wreath. I decided to try one a few weeks ago and now I've made several. They are rather addicting!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas and Enjoy.
I ADORE your paper wreath! I think I want to try my hand at making one. Where do you get the music sheets for it? Your mantel looks beautiful too. I love the way you decked it out with an outdoor theme. I'm going to look at some of your older posts so I can enjoy your other decorations. BTW, I've never made a custard pie either. Ha!
ReplyDeleteOops! I realized that you used book pages for your wreath. Now, THAT I have!
