Santa's Cookies  Waechtersbach cookies christmasOur Favorite Christmas Cookies & Christmas Cookie Gifts is my final cookies-themed page, at least for 2009.   I didn’t quite finish as I had intended to also do our brownie bites cookie recipe…but they will just have to wait for another time.  I did manage to finish many other cookie-themed pages including:

The Best-Ever Ginger Crinkles Molasses Cookie Recipe
The Best-Ever M&M Cookies Recipe
Rose’s Christmas Cookies
The Gingerbread Boy, A Review
Christmas Cookies: Bite Size Holiday Lessons, A Review
Can’t Catch Me, I’m Wearing My Gingerbread Apron
Lenox Gingerbread House
Waechtersbach Plate: You Are Special Today Family Tradition
The Best Cookies Bake Off Ever

Quite a collection, if I do say so myself. They’re not all Christmas pages so some of them should hopefully do well all year long. Only time will tell…meanwhile, “Cookies anyone?”

Are My Gingerbread Aprons Too Colourful?

Posted by Treasures By Brenda on 6th November 2009

You can’t catch me because I’m wearing my gingerbread apron. Well, unless you are a fox, that is. My latest apron page is up and I’m loving the gingerbread.

I’m looking for an opinion though because I think the page may be overdone.  I’m having a hard time stepping back and looking at it from the point of view of someone who is not quite so familiar with it.

Naturally, I created it in the typical workshop with its blue theme and then added the Christmas theme. However, now I think there’s too much color and that the beautiful aprons don’t shine the way they should. I’d be thrilled to have your opinion…although I’ve almost talked myself into changing to a more neutral background. 

Thanks,
Brenda
