Ideas for decorating a "Baking Themed" wreath?

I have to make a baking themed wreath. Any thoughts on what would be cute. We're using glue guns. Thank you.

Reply:Check out Oriental Tradings web site. Great tree and wreath items. www.orientaltrading.com.
Reply:A few items that would work are a small wire wisp, mini cup cake papers and measuring spoons. Wooden mixing spoons with a ribbon bow would look great and maybe some cookie cutters strung on a ribbon and spaced around your wreath or they could dangle loosely on the ribbon. Cookie cutters come in metal as well as plastic and can come in different colors. Cinnamon sticks are great. Also dried apples cut so the seeds make a star. And making fake cookies and things with a flour and salt recipe would work great.


4 cups flour; 1 cup salt; 1 1/2 cup warm water.


Mix salt and flour first. Slowly add warm water. Roll dough to approx. 1/8 inch and use cookie cutters for shapes.


Bake at 325 degrees for one hour or until hard. Use paint to decorate and varnish to preserve. This recipe is great for making ornaments and things. Just use your imagination in decorating your wreath. If you can't find dried apple slices use the dough and make your own. Hope this helps. Have fun.

Reply:Look in the doll house part of a craft store for minis . they make small items for wreaths. also use designer tacky glue along with you glue gun. glue gun glue melts in heat ( like you hot hot attic in the summer ). the designer tacky glue will help hold in the heat. You can cinnamon ornaments . it will make your wreath smell great.

Reply:Go to the toy department and get some kids toy baking pans, rolling pins and the like. Some of them might even have a small cookbook with them. Add some cookie cutters, cinnamon sticks, a small whisk - you get the idea! Let me know how it comes out - sounds like fun!
Reply:BiancaVee had some great ideas! Also, what about cookie cutters, small baking pkgs (ie: baking powder, sugar packages, cinnamon, etc), speaking of cinnamon - cinnamon sticks! A mini grater, small old fashioned hand mixer, small measuring cups, etc. Sounds cute to me! You could also add sprigs of dried mint, thyme, dill, etc.
