Locust Creek Caramel Apples: One tasty treat

An apple a day keeps the doctor away...am I right?

NKY and Cincinnati friends - I feel like I must tell you about these beautiful and absolutely delicious caramel apples. My high school friend Nicole received rave reviews when making them as a hobby and decided to offer them up to the locals.

I saw these and immediately thought they would be perfect for teacher or hostess gifts. With the holiday season upon us, I always have my eyes open for special treats that will serve as tokens of appreciation.

Love gourmet goodness too? Here's what you need to know: 

• They're only $5 a pop.
• Buy 6 apples, get 1 free.
• You can customize your toppings. Pick from a variety of candy bar or cookie options. Plus, select white or milk chocolate for an extra layer of goodness.
• Apples are good for five days (as long as you don't cut into them and wait five days).
• Do not store them in the refrigerator. 
• They come beautifully packaged.
• You can order through Locust Creek's Facebook page.

Now, who's ready to indulge or treat someone special?

I was gifted two apples to sample, but all opinions are my own.

A fall craft in 5 minutes flat

This weekend, I stopped in Michael's and couldn't pass up the white artificial pumpkins I've seen all over blogland. With a price tag that was 60% off, they were beckoning me.

I also spotted a collection of Halloween embellishments in the scrapbook section. This collection was on sale too, so I scored each set for 40% off. Hard to believe that large rhinestone "P" was only $1.19!

Within seconds, my large pumpkin was complete. The "P" was set on one sheet of adhesive, so it was easy to transfer. The medium pumpkin took a few more minutes to finish as each rhinestone was separate sticky. 

I am thrilled with the final product! As you know, I love gorgeous spaces, but hate complex DIY projects. That's why this one was right up my alley! 

Bonus: I can store these away and pull them out year after year. For under $30, I have a fall set I can use again.
