Cookie Exchange and Paperwhites

 

We had a cookie exchange last week and the rules were a bit different. We were each to bring 3 dozen cookies in a container. The container needed to be a bit unique. Then we drew names for the cookies. I failed to get a photo of all the containers, but they were beautiful offerings.

This is such a great idea, I hope it inspires! Marilyn took a heavy, glass icebucket and filled it halfway with her cookies. She then placed an arrangement of greens and paperwhites inside the ice bucket and tied the glass container with doupioni silk ribbon. Absolutely the perfect hostess gift!
