Cute Fall Apples

It’s a rainy fall day here in Georgia – I had to put the dogs out in the rain this morning and they were not happy with me. Apples are always something I think of in the fall and some nice baked apples sure would be good on this rainy day. But what I’m sharing today is a cute apple themed project for you. I got this idea from my dear friend Cindy Schuster – she is uber creative and I love her designs. I decided to use this apple idea as one of the “pillow gift” projects at my fall retreat.

The apples are made with the Square Pillow Box die in the Holiday Catalog. It is such a nice size for a fun container to add a sweet treat inside. But rather than something sweet I filled them with a cute little notepad that I found at the store – I decorated them with some coordinating Into The Woods Designer Series Paper and Old Olive Baker’s Twine.

I hope you like this fun treat. The girls at the retreat thought they were super cute.

Here is a list of all the supplies I used.
