So here is pictures (so far) of Merida from brave. I need to finish her hair and make her quiver and bow, but she’s coming along fairly well.
Dinosaur Cake
So much Nephew birthday happiness. The little dragon wasn’t the only thing I was working on for my nephews birthday party. But one was slightly more time sensitive. It was just as much fun to make though. I got to use the Wilton teddy bear pan once again and got to try making rice crispie […]
Finally Finished Toothless
So you remember three months ago in the “what I’m working on” post when I was all excited about getting green cat eyes so I could make toothless. Well he is FINISHED!! Just in time for my nephew’s birthday. In fact, I only got a few pcs before he was swept away by his […]
New Rattle
I realized a couple of weeks ago that all of the baby toys I have made have been GIRL GIRL GIRL. It makes sense because all of the babies in my life have been girls. But I still need to design something for the rest of the population. So I did it. I thought about […]
Happy St Patrick’s day. A little late
I made a happy Leprechaun well before St. Patrick’s day and had so much fun playing with him that I completely forgot to post about him. OK that’s a lie. I just got all procrastinaty on it. See. I was going to post ON st Patrick’s day and do a whole schpeal (did I […]
I see a Goldfish looking at me
I get to read Brown Bear Brown Bear What Do You See at the next story-time. It will be so much fun teaching the pet signs. I do 4 signs every time. So this time I will be doing Cat, Dog, Fish, and Duck. Cat, dog, and fish because they are common pets and duck because there […]
Lady Bug Rattle
As cute as the lady bug was. I has ended up being a little too big for my niece to play with very well. So, She needed something else. and I found made just the thing. A rattle with a lady-bug on top. I tried something new to see what would happen. With amigurumi, you […]
Gracie the Horse
I’ve always been in love with horses. I have one of my own who, unfortunately, still lives back in Illinois with my parents. Though I’m thoroughly enjoying the California version of winter (seriously it’s 70 Degrees and its FEBRUARY!), I totally miss riding. And I really wish I could have Zachary around horses. He loves […]
Precious Moments Cake
It was my husband’s grandmother’s birthday the other day and we all went over for a party at their house. I made all the food and the cake. It was fun. I had a great time figuring out how to paint a cake, and then make it all smooth. So here is what I did. […]
Hedwig
My new step-nephew had a birthday (he was the boy side of the giant cupcake) and he is crazy about Harry Potter! Well, we have something in common. Unfortunately I didn’t know about that until the morning of the party. So I had made his cake and the orange kitty for his sister, but had […]
Happy V-Day
Happy Valentine’s Day everybody I’ve wanted to make this for a while, but I finally had the yarn, the excuse, and the free time to make it. Isn’t it awesome!!! Ok, my mother-in-law thinks its gross, and so does my husband, and everyone else I have showed it to just thinks I’m weird. But I […]
A Multi-Person Birthday Cake
I was commissioned to bake the cake for a party that will be held this Saturday. They either wanted a topsy-turvy cake, or a giant Cupcake. My Mother-In-Law said that the Giant Cupcake would be better so that’s what I went with. Anyway, the cake is for two people! A Teenage Brother and Sister. The […]
Super Bowl Time!
My mother-in-law and step-father-in-law are football fan. So I’ve gotten into it a little. I would rather play than watch, but Zachary is lovin every moment. Mainly because everyone is yelling and stuff. Anyway, they have started getting out the football plates and other decorations for the big game this Sunday (who is playing again??? […]
