I have been wanting to make a version of this bag for awhile now but until I find the right mix of fabrics for my bag I have purchased a super cute one from the new Etsy seller That Darn Kat! I have known Katie for several years and have seen her produce the most amazing children’s couture! She is so talented and I am thrilled that she is sharing her sewing talent with grown up girls now!

A few weeks ago I recieved a gorgeous matching set of earrings, bracelet and necklate from Erin of The Vintage Pearl. Each piece is so gorgeous! She is a true artist! I absolutely LOVE it all! Thanks again, Erin! Here is the picture of the earrings from the set! She was more than happy to work on the rest as custom pieces for me! I highly recommend her for any custom jewelry ideas you have!

The princess Alaina has called cupcakes “cuppycakes” since the very first time she saw one. She can’t eat cupcakes most of the time since she is allergic to eggs but that doesn’t mean we don’t love to look at them! There is something perfect about a cupcake. Just the right amount of cake and frosting. You can eat it with your hands and somehow it seems guilt free to even have seconds! Today, we will be making cupcakes thanks to Mary since she was so sweet to send Alaina an egg free egg subsitute so she can enjoy baked goodies too!

The clip shown is a little bit of the cuppycake goodness for my swap partner from Amy’s Cupcake Swap I have so many ideas so little time!

Now for the new category….you know you want it! If you are like me and you have a house full of kids all day and your craft time is your down time to relax then you will LOVE these candles. A friend from a message board and her family own this company Swan Creek Candles and they are AMAZING! I am currently burning Hazelnut in my craftroom and Vanilla Poundcake in my kitchen and my house smells incredible. I couldn’t ask for a more pleasant atmosphere then being surrounded by the smells of cupcakes and lattes which is what my house smells like today. Plus she sends free candles in every order. It really doesn’t get better than that!
