I did manage to sneak in a quick Fall wreath over the weekend and some super easy "No bake" cookies.
Up first, Bunting and Burlap wreath:
If you know me, you know that I love all things burlap and I have a strong love for bunting. So after a quick trip to Michaels, I came up with this:
This was super easy to create. I had a small roll of burlap left over from IV's 1st birthday party - so wrapping the styrofoam wreath was very simply. After that part was done, I moved onto hot gluing the flowers and berries that I picked up at Michaels. (99 cent per batch)
And finally I printed out the FALL letters, glued them to my mini bunting that I made and that was it. Very easy and you can pretty much do any season seeing the burlap is so versatile. This wreath was made for less than $12. Not bad.
Ok, up next - No Bake Pumpkin Oatmeal Cookies:
- 3/4 cup quick oats
- 1/2 cup oat flour (I made my own in the food processor)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 cup splenda or sugar (I used Splenda)
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon (optional: a pinch pumpkin pie spice as well)
- 1/3 cup canned pumpkin
- 2 to 2 1/2 tablespoons skim milk
- 1 tablespoon oil
I combined all ingredients in a mixing bowl, then let the mixture sit in the refrigerator few a 1/2 hour or so. After that, I made into teaspoon size balls.
Note: This recipe made about what you see (minus two). So if you're looking to make a bigger batch, just increase the quantity of each of the ingredients above.
Let me know if any of you give these a try! Enjoy, Friends.




Definitely pinning your wreath -- I love it! I think I could make it :)
