Fit for a princess,,

I've got two cakes to do for little princesses this weekend so I thought I'd try out making my own little tiara for the cakes.. I used the tutorial here and the template found here  and instead of using royal icing for just a practice run I used melted white chocolate morsels.  You cant see it in the picture but half of the crown broke when I removed it from the can, so it will definitely have to be piped thicker next time.

Check back this weekend for the pics of the finished cakes.  Have a good one ~

Its a never ending cycle

.. that I really DONT  need a reminder of but I saw these signs at Craft O Maniac the other day and thought they were really cute.  So I made me a little set this weekend using some scrap pieces of wood/laminate flooring and some homemade stencils.  For now they are hanging like this but I want to do something different with them.  I like the way she added ribbon to hang hers with,  just might do something similar.  I'm hoping to make a sign that says "Laundry" on it but it'll be quite a bit bigger and then hang it above these three. 

 Linking up here today.. go check it out.

O' say can you see ..

the flag that has been waiting to get to its new home for over a  year now.  I told my mother-n-law about this time last year that I would paint her one.. well I did but then I kept forgetting to take it to her.  I got it out the other night and roughed it up a little bit to make it kinda look old.  And here it is finished...

and it is STILL at my house.  I put it in the truck to give to her this weekend and she left before I got it out.  But one day it will have a new home.  I hope everyone had a great 4th of July weekend.
