Noshes and Notions Recipes and Tips From Julia Usher

Julia’s Project File

I love to craft just as much as I love to cook. (The large number of non-edible projects in Cookie Swap should have tipped you off!) There’s something very satisfying about shaping nothing into something with my own two hands. Plus, a handmade invitation, party favor, or gift is the truest expression of the heart. Make something special for your next party or event, and guests will know you genuinely care. Below is a collection of my latest crafting projects, classified by project type (invitation, place card, or menu; gift or favor; décor; or technique tip) and the holiday or occasion for which they’re best suited. Just click on the link for photo(s) and detailed how-to instructions!
