Lemon Filled Hearts

Heart candy, It's everywhere for Valentine's season. I say instead of buying it as a gift why not make it and share the love! It's more personal and not to mention very creative.

I'm not much of a Lemon fan but these are so good, I would eat them all if I could. Here's the recipe. I hope you enjoy it. What is your favorite candy to make?

Ingredients:

Yellow candy melts

Lemon curd

Directions:

1. Melt candy melts in the microwave for 30 seconds and stir until smooth.

2. Put a small amount of the melts in a heart shaped candy mold and bring up to the sides of the mold until covered. Chill 15 minutes.

3. Fill with lemon curd and top with more candy melts. Chill 15 minutes.

4. Lightly tap the mold on the counter and the candy should fall out easily. Keep in an air tight container in the fridge. Makes about 20-25

5. Share the love.

My Advent Calendar

   It's not the best picture but I just had to share our very simple advent calendar we made last night. We used scrapbooking paper!  I love this paper and I don't even scrapbook. The paper can be used in so many different ways. One of the ways I love to use it is as a background for my blog pictures.

So, all we did was roughly cut four squares out of each sheet and folded them. Then we used fun markers to write the numbers. On the inside we wrote simple activities and messages.  Some activities we wrote were go see Christmas lights or write a letter to a friend. I think next year we will get a little more creative with it. What do you put inside your calendars?  Let me know.

Glass Pearl Necklace

It has taken a little while for me to post this necklace,  but I'm finally getting around to it. It's beautiful and elegant.  It's not just a necklace it's also a wrap bracelet. I had so much fun making it and can't wait to make another one. I have some more sewing projects coming up and some other things in the works too. I hope you all are as excited as I am.

Oh, one more thing, I have started selling Gold Canyon Candles.  Have you heard of them? They are only the best scented candles and accessories.  Enjoy the necklace and I'll see you soon.
