andrea- i wish i could ship them too!!! i have a ginormous bowl of cake that i don’t think i am going to use… i have too much! wish i could roll them up and send them!
WOW! You will not want to look at dough again for awhile! On Mon. I’m giving my hairstylist the two cakies I bought for her little girl!!! I can’t wait–she’ll love them!
I love this idea and would like to make them for a babyshower next week. I have a question about how you make them. When you insert the stick into the pop did you dip the stick in chocolate first to help it stay in? Thanks
I have a large growing pile of fabric scraps. I refuse to throw them away because I am sure they can be used for something. I have been seeing different types of interesting necklaces made of buttons, beads, and fabric. Then, I figured why not make one out of my scraps...
I think it made my white shirt a little less boring. This was so quick and easy to make.
How to make a recycled scraps necklace (which is very similar to the straps on my braided tablecloth bag):
1. Take your scrap fabric, I cut a .5''-1'' snip and tear the rest of the fabric down for a nice frayed edge. Used 3 different fabrics for each strand.
2. Take 3 of the torn pieces and tie the ends together with a rubber band.
3. Braid the 3 pieces together and tie ends together with rubber band when done.
4. Repeat steps 2 & 3 for more strands. Remember you can make the strands any length you want, if run out of fabric, just weave more into the braid.
5. Once all the strands you want are braided, gather one end of each strand together and straight stitch together with sewing machine. Repeat for the other ends of the strands. Snip off any excess.
6. Gather ends of the necklace and sew together (snip excess) or a ribbon can be sewn at the ends to be able to tie the necklace closed, but I just sewed both ends together.
7. Voila! A nice way to make use of all your lovely scraps.
Sorry if the directions get you a little lost, but it really is easy. I promise. Maybe I should put some in the shop. Please share any other good ideas you may have of things that can be made with scraps. I would love to hear (read) them!

rileigh anne- yes, you most definitely dip in chocolate first then stick in the ball. Let me know if you have any other questions!
