wilton course I

My friend Mary & I just completed Wilton Decorating Cake Class Course I.

I've learned that cake decorating....

is NOT easy,
it takes a LOT of time,
is VERY messy,
uses LOTS of fats (shortening, butter, cake),
and is VERY fun.


I'm laughing out loud as I look at these pictures becuase they are so lame. Don't expect anything amazing from me in the 'cake' department, but if you do want to see some amazing cakes...check out my friend's cake blog here.

  5. It looks great Skye! Love the pink roses for Spring. And the green looks just fine in the picture! :0) Here is a website you may want to check out. My sis-in-law told me about it years ago and I forgot about it until she posted something on facebook. This link sends you to "good" cakes, but you'll see what the site is really about when you look around! http://cakewrecks.blogspot.com/ -Mary

all the stockings were hung

I FINISHED!!! I'm so excited how they turned out. Yes, they are copycat from Garnet Hil [see below], but when they charge $50 per stocking you can't blame me right? I love sewing with felt. Every time I do it I have so much fun. It's like painting a picture with my bernina.

robin egg blue dresser

The toy/sewing/exercise/office room is where the majority of our time is spent throughout the day, and I hated looking at that ugly dresser (see below). After long hours of sanding, priming, painting, sanding, and staining...it is now my favorite part of the room. This dresser has earned it's way to be here and I'll tell you why. My sweet husband wasn't very anxious for me to get started on this because I think he thought that HE would end up sanding, priming, and painting, but I'm happy to say that I did it all, minus the hardware placement! And...I bought a lighter paint than this and once it was time to paint, I knew it wouldn't work so I had to return it and go darker. My husband was rolling his eyes. Then...after cleaning the brushes in our upstairs laundry sink, I left the tube hanging out of the sink that drains the washer. I started a load of laundry and headed downstairs. Thirty minutes later, we noticed water dripping from the dining room light fixt...

new sewing table

Someday....I will have a sewing room that is JUST for sewing. It will be filled with fabric, ribbon, thread, buttons, and more. I dream of a white sewing table, white cupboards for storage from wall to wall, cute boxes for organizing my unlimited supplies, painted walls of Robin egg blue with accents of lime green, and hard wood floors (to save my vacuum ). Someday.... For now...I love my new white sewing table (card table), storage underneath, my unlimited supply of thread, and accents of lime green (other accents include a treadmill, the computer desk, millions of toys, baby gear, etc). This is ' my place ' to create!
