Flower Cookie Round-up for May Day!

Happy May Day Everyone!

One of my favorite childhood classroom memories would be making
 May Day baskets in Mrs. Beam's third grade class.  

The baskets were brown construction paper and the flowers were brightly colored tissue.
We spent quite a few days making them, 
and then on May 1st we secretly left them on a neighbors porch as a surprise.

Since I can't leave flowers on all of your doorsteps, 
I thought I'd bring a round-up of my favorite flower cookies to your internet porch!

Enjoy!

Hope you all get the chance to spread some love today.

Happy May Day!

  2. I love your polka dot sunflowers! I remember making a May Basket at school too, hanging it on our front door, ringing the doorbell, and watching my mom come to the door, while I hid behind a bush:)

  8. Such a BEEautiful collection! I vividly remember dashing madly behind a bush one May Day many years ago. I took my kindergarten teacher's instructions very seriously and didn't want to get caught leaving the little basket of flowers on my neighbor's doorknob. Scariest holiday ever. :D
    Beautiful cookies, and I LOVE those black and white polka dot centers on the sunflowers!
