Shamrock Pretzels

Saw these cute pretzel treats on Pintrest. I changed it up and used a white Chocolate disc and then outlined in green chocolate. The green M&Ms alone just looked messy to me. I find lots of things look EASY when you see the photos on Pintrest, but actually carrying it out can be a bit of an experience. The more I worked with them the better they looked. As with all things "practice makes perfect!"

Creative Forces



OK, so I've always loved making things but now with Pintrest the ideas are just overly abundant. I've enjoyed making some of the great things I see, creating my own ideas and giving them as gifts. Now I know what I can do to keep myself busy when I retire. Here is my adaptation of something I saw on Pintrest. The words are to our wedding dance song "Everything I Love" by Cole Porter. I made sure all the lyrics were able to be read in the trunk. I added the branch with our names and wedding day and then the two small branches for our children. I gave it to my hubby this morning for Valentine's Day!
