My new Obsession

As you may or may not be aware I love cupcakes! Everything I find cupcakes I have to have. Well I ran across this cupcake embroidery pattern and thought I can't embroider but what else could I do with it? Well I decided to try to embroider. I got online and looked at blogs, you tube you name it. For never sewing before I am doing ok. I have not mastered it yet. I thought cupcakes embroidered on towels would be so cute. So, I am trying to get good enough to actual make a towel and hang it. Then hopefully sell some. I just love the colors of the thread or floss and "they" call it. I'll get you updated on my progress.

Thanks for stopping by, Lisa

Pink Rose Shoes and Earrings

It seems the floral trend is in clothing and accessories right now. I went shopping with my sister and 16 year old niece and we went to Forever 21 and Abercrombie & Fitch tons of pink roses on shorts, shirts, shoes, you name it. My niece says to me I want Shabby Chic shorts. I about fell over and said your mom and I are rubbing off on you! Here are some pictures of things I got. So inexpensive. The earrings where $1.80 and the shoes $16.80. I had to order them online the store was out or did not have them in stock yet. So cute check out the online stores to see more! Thanks for visiting, Lisa

Pink Coffee filter Heart

I can't seem to get enough of coffee filters. I love how fluffy they look when on a wreath. I had a foam heart I bought last year and never used it. I pulled it and already had some coffee filters died pink so I just started gluing. I love how it turned out. I should hung it with small ribbon but instead I just wide satin ribbon. Oh well next time. I can't wait to do some Easter Wreath's love Easter colors. I think I am way ahead of myself I'm thinking Easter already! Need some sun tired of the dreary dark sky's. Preparing for my big day tomorrow The Big Birthday. I'll let you guess which one it is!

It's Almost Here!

I have been so busy working and going to school I didn't have much time to do my favorite thing decorate for Christmas. I did my same theme pink and aqua. Here's a few photo's of my house this Christmas. I did not have any time to make much for Christmas either I had a lot of projects in mind but got nothing done. Oh well there's always next year.

Merry Christmas,

Birthday Cupcakes

Today was my big sisters birthday. She would not let me photograph her so I took pictures of the cute cupcake toppers I made for her. Along with other little decoratons and some cute pink cupcake soap I made for her. She like cupcakes almost as much as I do. I think I am a freak for cupcakes and she just likes them. I attempted making her some big tissue paper roses. They did not turn out as good as I wanted them to but it was my first attempt so they were ok. The little image on the cupcake pick is from Free Pretty Things for You blog. Isn't the little girl on it so sweet.

Penny Candy

One of my thrift finds over the weekend. A cute pink and white stripe Penny Candy container. I just added some roses and put it on my outdoor table. I then hung a little chandelier above it to make it a little sweet outside. I like sitting outside in the evenings. It is just now getting warm here. It has been very rainy and dreary. Bring on the sun!
