Challenge 9- Dana's Cookie Box

[kathybessey]

Love the paper on these! And I'm really intrigued about those golf ball cookies~

They are very rich and very yummy and take a lot of work but so worth it (ask my kids, they will tell you so LOL) I will do Challenge 1 again and post it there by the end of the weekend I have to return to work tomorrow I am sure it will be only partial days for the first week or so.

Me too, I agree, I love them all.

The boxes all look great. I like the idea of the small ones for candies and such.

Retta, the weather is breaking records for heat here, so the pool is soooooo nice! Our thermostat in the shade of the deck was registering 95 and there's no sign of it cooling off anytime soon. Thankfully, my sil was able to bring a shade tent yesterday or we would have had major issues with everyone outside in our backyard. Our yard is small and with the pool, we didn't want tree roots too close, so the only shade is under the basement walkout/deck area. Even that area is only half shaded by mid afternoon, and would have accomodated maybe 6-8 people, nowhere close to the 25 who were there! The reunion went great though and with the heat many of them didn't care about parading around in a bathing suit and enjoyed the cooling effects of the pool. I didn't get the chance until later, and instead got to stand in front of a hot bbq on the upper deck and bbq all the shish-ka-bobs. Next time, I need to pick something that cooks faster, or that can cook in a crockpot! lol

[Retta]

wow that would have been hot. I'm glad you finally made it into the pool. Next time - Cold Cuts and fancy garlic parmesan bread and condiments! LOL

Here are my boxes. I just photographed the fronts and tags so you could see them better. The backs were just lying off to the side! I used a lot of these last year for neighbor goodies and will use these the same way this year! Thanks Dana!

Edited: Wow! I just looked at the picture and I PROMISE that those colors are not orange! It is actually a very pretty maroon! Go figure!

[JeannetteC]

Shirl, I was going to comment on the colours, but in a positive way, lol!
Love the variety of the paper patterns.

[shirltop]

Thank you Jeannette!

[Gigi]

Beautiful Shirl!

[CeCeCreates]

Yes, I thought that was awful mean of Dana to make us do SIX boxes for this challenge!!!!!! LOL! We will appreciate it though when the holidays come and we have them done. That is if we get them done.
Loving everyone's boxes!

[LisaH]

[Trisha]

Shirltop, these look great!! Cameras can play tricks, for sure, but these still look good!
