SSSSNAKES R US!!

So when my three year old said that she wanted a SNAKE themed party, I was excited because I love snakes and I was so glad that she was turning into the tomboy that once was myself... Then I saw that theres is NOTHING for snake parties on the internet and NOTHING remotely coordinating with that theme.  I was left to my own imagination on this one... So I found a few sites that had awesome snake cakes but had NO description on how to make it, so I decided to make my own and hope for the best.  Now I have a really supportive husband when it comes to most things; however, he had ABSOLUTELY no faith that I could pull this off, boy did I show him wrong!!!!

I got the best compliments on this cake and I cannot believe that I actually pulled it off and the cool part is, it actually tasted pretty darn good for a day old fondant cake ;)

Tutorial to come soon on how we made it

Here is what it looked like on the inside

HEEHEE it was much fun making this cake, it was cool on ALL sides

Memorial Day Fun (late)

We had a blast celebrating Memorial Dat with our friends Clancy and Debbie at his parent's house!  We played volleyball, (yea I still have it) found some cuddly baby rabbits and got to eat some really good FOOD.  Who could ask for more? Clancy, being the photographer that he is, couldn't resist the chance to take some great shots.  Here is what he got...

Manuel thinks she looks like Farrah Fawcett here

See...Messy hair, red shirt, that's about all...

She loves BUBBLES!

Sheila loving on Doodle, Doodle not loving Sheila so much...

The girls loved the baby bunny...

LOOK AT THIS CUTIE!!!!!!!

She is just like her Mama, always wanting more animals!

 

Watermelon Bows went to Luling!!

So I finally gave in a made what everyone is Luling was asking for...HUGE BOWS!  It took me awhile to get over my sore thumb from defraying all those spikes but here they are...

I made many, many more smaller bows and before I even left the store, I had sold three of them.  I love it!! Next adventure will be makin watermelon pillow case dresses. 

I've finally made it...

Around to writing on this blog.  I have been so busy trying to come up with new ideas, I have'nt even had time to actually tell you guys about them! I completed a tiny tutu tote today that turned out GREAT! it will go up on my etsy page (Leaps and Bownds) sometime this week when I get my paypal account reinstated.  Now onto figuring something to make out of these really pretty watermelon hand towels I got at Anna's the other day....I'm thinking of a cute changing pad or some bibs but I really don't wanna have to cut it at all, it's too pretty the way it is.  I am super excited to get back into making new things, and hopefully selling a few more now that I am online, not that I can complain about my sales in Luling. :)
