a thanksgiving treat

i love holidays and pretty much any reason to celebrate. celsey and i saw the cutest idea for halloween treats. she rented a cotton candy machine for her daughter's birthday so we thought it would be the perfectly easy cutest treat. 

we have no idea what happened, but after one day the cute cotton candy spider webs basically turned into a hockey puck-most epic crafting fail of our lives. 

we have to redeem ourselves somehow. hopefully people accept our caramel apples as redemption. they were much more successful than the halloween fail. 

we used this recipe to make the caramel. the rest is pretty simple. 

dip apples in caramel and let set

dip apples in melted white chocolate

immediately roll in cinnamon sugar

in between apple steps, make tags. 

cut 3" squares

stamp/write/print thankful for you 

when apples are all set, put in cellophane bag, tie with red string, and attach tag. 

cute tasty treat

now to think of our Christmas treat...
