Cookie
Cutters
Home Decor
- Adorn/accent
kitchen walls (just one or make a display to match your
kitchen theme) to give a natural country cinnamon 'n apple
mood.
- Use a large
Mason Jar or clear Cookie Jar all year round to display
the different cookie cutters for the season. Tie Raffia
around jar to create a country kitchen effect.
- Use for sponging
and decoupage on walls.
- Use a stencils
to decorate around windows and doorways instead of buying
expensive wallpaper borders.
- Use a variety
of stencils from one theme (zoo or barnyard, ie) and make
a mural on a kid's bedroom wall.
- Cut out squares
of carpet, paint one side and use to decorate nursery walls
or kid's rooms.
- Using different
shapes, sizes, styles, tie onto different lengths of nylon
wire and make a weatherproof, shiny, tingling wind chime.
An idea: Graduate size of cookie cutters, from large at
top to mini at the bottom. Use all different kinds or put
some together to carry a related theme. For example, an
animal theme, star theme (different sizes), sports theme,
holidays, babies, etc.
- Use clear
fishing line and tie on a cookie cutter to each piece (12"
lengths or as desired), especially older unique cookie cutters
to create a mobile to hang from the kitchen ceiling!
- Use as a stencil
to make felt shapes for a mobile or decorate walls of kids
rooms.
- Display cookie
cutters in a basket, with the basket hanging on a peg shelf
in the kitchen.
- Tie backs
for kitchen or children's bedroom curtains.
- Place one
or two cookie cutters on a ribbon and hang from a kitchen
window.
- String a bunch
of cookie cutters onto a decorated metal hanger for an easy
and quick project to make wind chimes.
- Decorate cookie
cutter with colored tissue paper, colored plastic wrap,
or some similar transparent or semi-transparent substance
and hang up as a sun catcher in a window in any room of
the house.
- Fill a cookie
cutter with colored beans, seeds, or beads, and seal it
well with clear or tinted plastic wrap. These can be hung
up as a kitchen decoration. If filled with clear colored
plastic beads, cookie cutter makes a nice sun catcher if
hung in a window.
- Cookie cutters
are great for decorating kitchen and children's room floors
- use a stencil and get permanent paint to fill in with
details.
- Make pathways
or decorate flower bed trims by filling cookie cutters with
a quick setting concrete mix (available at hardware stores).
- Hammer nails
into an old cutting board and hang cookie cutters from it,
changing the cookie cutter shapes seasonally - accent with
dried Cinnamon apples and/or flowers.
- Use cookie
cutter as a stencil or fill with Plaster of Paris to paint
or decoupage and place on shelves in any room of the house.
- Use mini cookie
cutters as a pull tag on a window shade.
- Use cookie
cutters on the end of drapery or curtain rods.
- Place a cookie
cutter on a pretty plate, place a color votive candle in
middle and put some "wet" potpourri around base for a country
kitchen.
- If you are
fortunate to have your Grandmother's cookie cutters from
era gone by, display, display, display!
- Make "stained
glass" sun catchers by using gelatin to create a sort of
"plastic. Ingredients:
3 Envelopes Unflavored Gelatin (or if your a vegetarian, the gelatin substitute); 8-10 Tablespoons Water; several Drops of Food Coloring; plastic plate and something for punching hanging holes. Directions: Mix the water and food coloring over low heat. Add gelatin and stir continuously. Cook until thickened (30 seconds-a minute). Pour the mixture onto a plastic plate, remove as many air bubbles as possible. Let it set for 45 minutes-hour. Remove from plate. The gelatin will be flexible. Use cookie cutters to cut shapes. Punch holes where you would like to hang them from. Let them sit out and continue to air dry--they'll be in 2-3 days and can then be strung up to dangle where the sun will shine through them.
- Make "three-dimensional"
tiles. Using clay, roll a 1/4 inch slab. Cut 4x4 (or any
size and shape you choose) squares. From the same slab or
a new one, cut shapes with cookie cutters. Rough up the
back of the cutter cut clay and the front of the tile clay
(only where the design will go though). Using a little slip
(water/clay mixture) adhere the two together. Allow to air
dry or fire if needed. Paint or glaze.
- Mini cookie cutter shapes as drawer or cabinet pulls.
