Rose napkins

You can make these with paper or fabric. 


We propose a touch of distinction inside the glasses of each of them: using the art of origami, with two textile or paper napkins rolled together, we create this marvelous rose.

To create the leaves:
1. Fold a square napkin on a diagonal
2. Then fold in half along the diagonal
3. Fold in half again


To create the rose:
1. Use a square napkin of any color and fold the fabric in half along the diagonal. Put it on a flat surface so that the larger side is on top and then fold the corner opposite to the upper side, taking care the edges are parallel.
2. Fold back the bottom-up napkin in half and wrap a napkin from one end to the other side.
3. Place the flower top and bottom halves of the leaves.
4. Finish in the glass.

Chocolate kiwi popsicles

I also found this, you can use what ever fruit that works well with chocolate =)


These popsicles are good, refreshing, delicious and so simple that one no need words to explain its preparation, because even the little ones can help you.

Dip each Kiwi-pop into the chocolate mixture (it will immediately turn crispy) and place on a tray to refreeze or pass around right now.

Paper Pouches

These are actually really cool for close friends, because I don't think anyone have time to make 50 + of these lol .. maybe while one is watching a movie or something. U can put on popcorn, candy, nuts, fruits, just use u're imagination =) ... I love internet, specially when u Google, u find all kind of stuff =)

Of course, I found this at Martha Stewarts page, lol.

Edible crafts

Fun sandwiches for kids, parties, for yourself =) etc... I found this on Internet =) though I don't remember the page ... sorry 


You will need:

• Sandwich bread (the ones you prefer)
• Cheese cream (any kind or cheese slices)
• Cucumbers (I think you can do this with other vegtables too)
• Salt
• Freshly ground pepper
• Fresh mint leaves (if you want, for me it was just a decor)

With a vegetable peeler, cut the cucumber lengthwise and place them in foil sheets of paper to remove excess moisture.
We spread the bread with cheese cream and sheets of cucumber on it.
Cutt off crusts and from this point we can play with the forms as cookie molds: triangle, flower, star...
Sprinkle with salt, pepper and a sprig of mint. Delicious!
