Well, DUH!

Sometimes I have a great idea...

Then soon afterward, someone has a way better idea!  A week or two ago, I posted what I thought was a VERY nifty idea for graduate cookies.

Then, a few days later, I see these {of course this is my version} on one of my favorite cookie blogs, LilaLoa.


So, I'm here to say, FORGET what I said two weeks ago and follow these instructions from Lila Loa!

  Best idea ever!  Why piece together cookies, when you can use one easily accessible cutter and accomplish the same thing?  Perfect size, easier, AND as cute as can be!

I totally wish I had thought of this!

    Ha ha ha. I have to say that when I read your post...I was a little confused. There is no comparison to the ones I made and these.  You are simply AMAZING!! These are fantastic cookies. Thanks for sharing my idea though. :)

    Thanks for the link to LilaLola.  She has good tips, but more than that ... she really cracks me up.  I was entertained for some time.

    I have planned to make some graduation cookies. I'll take a look at my cutters to see ... Since I have no fish cutter I think I'll use your idea

    It's so fun when you guys see other ideas in your cookie cutters! I don't have that vision. You and the others always amaze me and keep me inspired!

    I have been following your blog for awhile and got some grate tips from your amazing cookie art! By the way; did you know that angry bird is from Finland? 
    I don't make decorated cookies very often; it takes so much time but getting better should have more practice. Unfortunately I haven't been able to get those little piping bottles on this side of the ocean. Many good wishes for the summer!

    I saw these and thought they were clever, too!  That lIla Loa is insanely clever and slightly  bizarre....always entertaining!  Thanks for sharing this!

    Well honestly, between the 2 of you, your humble audience is always awed by your clever use of cutters.  I am consciously trying to envision other ideas, looking carefully at invitations and papers and learning to be more inspired and not quite so literal....you are both amazing!
