Cupcakery!

Hey Grrls! :)

So, I've decided recently that I really want to try my hand at making fake cupcakes! Something along the line of these little beauties! I wonder - have any of you ever made such a thing, and if so can you offer any tips? Any idea what to use for swirly frosting on top? Any other thoughts?

I do a lot of (real!) baking anyway, but am *sooooo* inspired by CUPCAKES!! Really really want to try this! Any thoughts or help would be wonderful :) Thanks!!

so i thought I'd take a break from my usual crocheting and knitting and general crafts to revisit an old fav of painting.

this weekend i picked up some water colors and paper. It had been many years since I've touched a brush to paper and i certainly have missed it!!

I'm not the best at it, but it's been fun revisiting it and i think I'll make it a more common indulgence


anywho, ( here's what i've done since sunday )

I've neglected my knitting for quite some time now. I blame the fact that I promised lots of scarves to different people, and ended up getting stuck in a seemingly never-ending rut. I have 3 scarves all in progress, and a set of wrist warmers. It'll be summer before I get them done! In the mean time, here's what I made last night :)

I might make another one tonight! I also spent today working on a zine. It's starting to take shape, hurrah! Being unemployed + being snowed in + COFFEE = me being super productive :D
