Hi everybody! I am so excited to be here at Everything Under the Moon with the beautiful Nikki! And I'm thrilled that she asked me to share a project with you all for her 12 Days of Christmas Holiday Party!



Let me just give you a quick run-down on me...



My name is Maggie and I blog at Midwestern {Sewing} Girl...

There you will find a little bit everything...sewing, cooking, baking, diy-ing, crafting, family stuff, you name it. I would love love love for you to come by to see me!



Now, on to the good stuff...my project today is something my kids and I do every year...it's definitely become one of our Christmas traditions...and it's the easiest thing in the whole wide world to make...

You know, the stuff you sprinkle on your lawn to help Santa's reindeer find your home?

Now, I'm sure most (if not all) of you know what I'm talking about...but for those of you who may not, I'm going to share my ultra-special top-secret recipe...are you ready for it???

Amazing, huh? Yep, that's all it is...colored sugar & oats...



My kids really love making this on their own & then packaging it up to give to neighbors & classmates...

This year I've whipped up some printables to attach to our little gifts...just download and print!

Here's a little preview of the tag...

Reindeer Food 2011

This is a really fun craft for the kids and should take you all of about 3 minutes to do...and make sure to whip-up some extra for your neighbors & friends! You want to make sure you've covered all the bases when it comes to getting Santa to land at your house...



Thank you so so much for having me here today, Nikki!

Happy Holidays, everyone!
