If I were a bedroom, I would look like this....

Hopefully after my bedroom overhaul, it will look a little something like this.

Paint Sample Crafts!

As I was trying to decide what color I wanted to paint my new (old) room I managed to collect many paint samples

I grabbed a standard hole punch and just started going to town


I love the Behr (sorry about the product placement) because of all of the hues on one card

I just used an old fashioned glue stick to place the dots wherever they looked good and voila! an original piece of art!

xoxo happy re-purposing

Second time's a charm?

Here it goes. It will be my second attempt at making gourmet cupcakes today. This is what I'm thinking: Champagne cupcakes with strawberry buttercream frosting? Giving it a whirl and I'll post my outcome later....until next time.

Meringue Disaster

Well, here it is, my first blog about my cupcake adventures. And I'm sad to say that it ended on a bad note. For some reason I decided making meringue was a good idea....in my blender. Let's just say that it ended up more like pudding.



The cake was also a little too muffin-like and dry. Martha Stewart, your recipe is never going to be used again. At least they ended up cute....
