Happy Valentines Day Decorated Cookie Collection

Valentines Day is such a fun holiday to decorate cookies..... for multiple reasons. First of all, it is the day to express love, and since cookies do that every day of year, it just makes sense to make cookies for the ones we love and cherish. And then, there is a bazillion ways to decorate heart cookies and the like to customize them to each color combination and style. 

I love choosing a sprinkle mix made by Sweets & Treats and then making a whole slew of cookies to match it. For this set, I used the Sweet Treats mix and added some red into it too. :)

I hope you can feel the love and enjoy the Valentines Day holiday. I'm sending lots of love within this blog post to all of you....

 

 
 

Valentines Gift Tag Decorated Cookies

My love for gift tag cookies has not waned a bit in the last year. I believe I have done them for nearly every season and occasion. haha I just can't get enough of them. The best part of the idea is that it is extremely versatile and customizable.

Here's my favorite gift tag cutters:

Trust me......once you start making them, they seem to sneak into every cookie collection. ;)

Heart Patchwork Quilt Decorated Cookie Collection

If you've been around this blog for any length of time, you know how much I love quilts.....and how I love to incorporate them in my cookie sets.

This one didn't require any special cutters or patterns. I just took nine square cookies and imprinted hearts within them before baking to create a 3D illusion.

The decorating process was fun because I kept the cookies together the entire time and decorated them all at once. I even have a video to prove it. :)

 

It was super fun to make a simple, yet effective quilt pattern... made with tons of love. 

 

Golden Valentines Decorated Cookie Collection

It's funny.....every year I want to do both "formal" and "casual" Valentines cookies. Here's what I came up with for the fancy side of the holiday. haha

Gold always transforms a set of cookies. In fact, when my husband took some of these cookies to work (his co-workers are often the recipients of my projects), many said these were over-the-top of any I'd ever done. I don't know about that.....but I do know that when you add gold to a set, it definitely takes them to a more elegant status.

Starting the season with some golden love..... ❤️

Happy Valentines Day Decorated Cookie Collection 2017

Oh the love...... spread one cookie at a time. 

Valentines Day is the perfect holiday to make cookies for those we love.
And the decorating doesn't have to be complicated.....simple goes a long way.

On this day of expressing love, I wanted to take a moment once again to tell you how much I appreciate your presence on this site.
My ultimate goal is to spread love with cookies.....and you allow me to do that.
Thank you!

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 
It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, 
it keeps no record of wrongs. 
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.
But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled;
where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 
For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 
When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child.
When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. 
For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. 
Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. 
But the greatest of these is love.

I Corinthians 13:4-13
