Don't Wake The Kids

And Other Rules for Motherhood

Project Update Monday

on February 15, 2010
008 A couple weeks ago, I hosted my very first giveaway of a dozen Valentine cakepops. I made them out of red velvet cake and creamy vanilla icing. Then I coated them in red candy coating and constructed flowers out of Valentine Candy Corn and M&Ms.
011 Then I had to decide how to deliver them. I had to decide how to package them, which is a constant dilemma for me. I just so happened to have a pail I bought months ago to scrapbook with. It’ll be perfect!
017 I think it came out nicely. Plus it gave me a chance to finally use the Cricut – besides cutting out animals for my kids. I was so happy to give it a good home.
Last week, I took Diva and Manchild to paint pottery. This week, I got to pick up our finished pieces.
040 Diva painted a mug. She’s ready for some hot chocolate.
038 Manchild painted a castle box. I’m hoping he doesn’t break it too soon.
034 And I painted a cupcake plate. It’s going to be perfect to serve a cupcake.
028 Finally, James gave me a great Valentine’s Day present. A giant cupcake cake mold and a book about craft blogging. I can’t wait to read it. I promise I’ll share the tips I learn.
Here’s to another great week!
