Matty and I decided not to get a real Christmas tree this year since we're not going to be around much.
We were a little bit bummed so I decided to surprise Matty and make a different kind of tree!
I cooked up some cookies and covered them in colorful icing.
Then I made a tree out of paper and placed the cookies on it!
When Matty came home I whipped out some gel,
and we decorated the cookies together.
Now we have our very own, very tasty Christmas tree!

@Alyssa- haha yes! Matty definitely looks like Mark Ruffalo.
Now that's being creative! =o) I only put up the tree for my husband 'cause he's Christian. It's nice to do things for other people. xD
Decorating cookies or the tree together is what I find to be memories to cherish!

I love cookies,
I love christmas tree's,
I love your cookie christmas tree!
BEST.TREE.EVER!
So cute!
That's an awesome idea! Super cute. :)
I love it! How did you ever came up with the idea from this wonder-colorful-christmas-thing-tree? It's great!
@Alana- I wanted to bake cookies and thought that after cookies are decorated they sort of look like ornaments on a tree. So I thought it would be fun to make a tree for them!
That's so sweet Katie.
This year I was going to be in my apartment all alone until the 21st (because of exams) so I wanted to decorate but on a budget. I decorated my windows with tons of snow flakes and bought a tiny poinsettia and decorated it like a tree. It had lights and tiny ornaments I made....
Sometimes the homemade christmas decorations are way better.
Ohhh I SO want the icing recipe :D
I won't decorate this year because we are currently repairing some parts of the house and it's awfully dusty and messy. Next year, though, I'll be living at my new house and I'll try to do something :)
I love your creative mind! I wish we could share walkie-talkies. :)

Yummy tree you've got there! I did a homemade tree as well earlier this week with photos of myself and the housemates as ornaments.
You can see a photo of it here! http://twitpic.com/3h0fw9
We all loved it so much that we thought we should invite a few critters to come love it with us. =)
awwww it's so cute!
ok, I want the second one on the bottom and d thirst one in the middele, please don't forget to give me tohe one on the top... I'm already making me some coffee to make company in my belly so that the cute "cookie balls" feel warmer in me... ;)
Another creative idea, Katie! That's absolutely amazing! :)
However did you keep Moo away from the ornaments if the tree was on the floor?
Such a pretty idea!
creative indeed!
@LindaW- We made it on the floor but then I picked it up and put it on the table. It's like the tree was a giant plate!
This is adorable!
Awh, that's so cute !!
