Rose Petal Jelly

"It has a sweet light lemon flavor, followed with a gentle floral note from the rose petals."

recipe found here, from Symphonious Sweets

Class activity idea:

Prepare a batch of rose petal jelly (possibly fresh bread).

Deliver it, along with a fresh cut rose, to a few chosen individuals

who have shown "true beauty" in the way they live their lives.

DIY Rose Earrings

tutorial here, from Grosgrain Fabulous

another tutorial here, from PS: heart

These precious little earrings are so easy to make.

The roses (found at Michael's) would also make great pendants for necklaces.

Oh, you could also glue them onto a ring blank for an adorable ring.

Great incoming Mia Maid gifts or craft for a class activity...  just saying.

DIY Egg Carton Roses

tutorial here, from Rosi Jo'

Can you believe these beautiful roses were made from an egg carton?

This would be a fun craft to make after a mini lesson on recycling.

DIY Giant Paper Rose Flower

great step-by-step photo tutorial here, from Green Wedding Shoes

These would be such a fun welcome for a new Mia Maid!

Leave it on her doorstep with a note.

Or present it to her during class on her first Sunday as a Mia Maid.

I am sure she would get a lot of attention in the hallways.  :)

Rose Cookies

cookie and frosting recipes here, from i am baker

These adorable rose cookies (all in the frosting decor) are perfect for a Mia Maid luncheon.

Yes, I am throwing the idea out there...

I think Mia Maids should have an annual luncheon.

The Beehives in our stake have an annual Beehive Conference,

why can't the Mia Maids have an annual luncheon?

There, I said it. (well, typed it)  :)

Rose Covered Cake

This technique could be taught during a cake decorating activity.

Ric Rac Rosettes

various techniques here, from LayLock

Use these delicate little rosette on rings, hanging from a necklace,

made into a hair pin, grouped onto a headband or set as a brooch.

Great craft or gift.
