Pretzels and Apples

March 7, 2011 By Spoonful of Sugar - 18 Comments

Sarah made us some delicious pretzels this afternoon – perfect for a relaxing happy hour alfresco style. She used a recipe from Bread by Sara Lewis. She added some Tuscan Seasoning to the glaze – very tasty.

I love cute stationery supplies and made some apple inspired pegs while Sarah was baking. I covered some wooden pegs (clothes pins) with Japanese Masking tape, and then added a sweet apple die cut (using the Preserves Cricut cartridge).

The larger peg had a piece of adhesive magnet added to the back so that it can stick to the magnetic board in the craft room. The pegs would also look sweet on gift bags.

    Wow, I HAVE to remember that for my daughter’s birthday and make some clothes pins for the gift bags. That’s really cute! Also the pretzels look really tasty and I would love to try them.
    Bye, Jule
