You may be wondering what on earth this picture has to do with Christmas.

It’s a little something called Practice Bakes Perfect over at Cookie Connection where you create cookie sets for fun, trying to stretch your creativity a little.

With this particular one (and I admit I haven’t done one for ages as life just gets so hectic) you had to choose at least 5 Christmas cutters and create cookies that had a completely different theme.

I went for ‘Under The Sea’ and my daughters insisted I ‘went cute’ hence eyes on everything not just the mermaids..starfish, whale , octopus and puffer fish too!

Here is what the original cutters were actually intended for..

Happy only 161 shopping days to Christmas now!
