Valentine´s Day Miniature Cookie Etageres

Valentine's week starts today with "crafty Monday". You guessed it, this might be the first of many Valentine´s Day related posts that I am planning to do. Last week I have already finished these cute miniature cookie etageres but the things that I wanted to put on them were still missing. I think it´s kind of boring if there are cookies on a cookie etagere. So I had to find something else that would also relate to the overall Valentine`s…

Upgrade the traditional apple!

With a caramel-cover and some almonds around, this sunday is going to be great! Even if the temperature is now really getting cold in Germany (we had -3C degrees in the morning), the sun is shining, the leafs are falling down, it is pretty nice outside. For the first time this fall, I wore a wollen hat and my winterjacket when we went out for a walk this morning. If you want to make the apples yourself, just heat up…
