(Or "Mini Swap, Continued")
**EDIT: For some really cute pics of Claire in her mini apron (and play mitt), go here.
Doesn’t it look like candy? Sweet Tarts, or my favorite – Pixie Stix? I remember making my own version of pixie stix as a kid – a kool-aid packet and cup of sugar in a sandwich bag.
You might recognize some of the fabric from the oven mitt I made a while back, part of the mini apron swap package I sent to Claire. This was the apron I made for Claire, Lauri’s six-year-old who loves orange (and hates periwinkle; I love the fact that a six year old uses such a specific name for a color). I used this tutorial, and made up my own dimensions, also adding interfacing to the waistband. I packed a few goodies, fabric scraps and several fun recipes – Baked Apples, Milkshake, and Cinnamon Chips.
Cinnamon Chips:
4 Flour Tortillas
Spray Butter
1/2 c. Sugar
2 T. Cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix cinnamon and sugar and set aside. Cut the flour tortillas like a pizza, into 8 pieces each. Lay out on cookie sheet, alternating directions of each piece to fit as many as possible on the sheet (/ / / /). Spray the tortillas, then sprinkle sugar mixture over top. Bake in oven for 7-10 minutes.

I looooooove it! So girly but in a non-princessy way which is cool. I’m going to check out that tutorial. Great package!

THAT is too cute! It’s an apron right? It would make a lovely skirt!
