Acorns!

Hello all. I had seen this idea on Pinterest a few weeks or so ago and knew I had to try it but needed the right occasion.  My daughters Pre-K class was hosting (along with the K class) Teacher Appreciation Breakfast/Lunch this week and we were doing a Fall theme so I knew these would be a perfect little treat.  You just use nutter butters (the small round ones that come in a bag), Hershey kisses, mini chocolate chips and a little peanut butter for "glue" (the original Pinterest post says to use melted chocolate but I thought the peanut butter worked just fine- http://sixinthesuburbsblog.blogspot.com/2011/10/chocolate-peanutbutter-acorns.html).  I also use the technique of decorating a paper plate with a ribbon but since the plate is white and the ribbon is white it is hard to tell but I did use some fall themed ribbons :)

Here are my acorns:




I used a stamp set from The Stamps of Life called Raccoon2love.  It was perfect for these cute little acorns :)  I hope the teachers enjoyed the little snacks.  I am planning to make some for my work later this week or next week.

Thanks for stopping by, hope you have a crafty day!
