A great sale at Macy’s & towels for dessert! July 25, 2008

So I hit Macy’s yesterday in search of towels for a wedding gift, and I went CRAZY! They are in the midst of a huge home sale, and I had a coupon – I litterally got the wedding gifts (those really expensive ”Hotel” brand towels) at 50% off… and then I bought a few things for my house… which turned in to redo’ing my entire bathroom and bedding. Oops.

Today I busted out the towels I bought and assembled my famous (at least among my friends) Towel Cake. I am so proud of this one, I listed it on Etsy. Here it is…

There are more photos of it In My Etsy Shop. I am so thrilled with how this one came out, I am a big fan of clean and simple and I think this one is just perfect, if I do say so myself!

Fakey Cakies Anyone? July 23, 2008

Okay, shameless plug. In the midst of baby shower madness yesterday, while frantically finishing off the beautiful diaper cake centerpieces I had made and admiring my handi work, I had a light bulb moment. Why don’t I make these for money instead of simply for family and friends (though I love making things for family and friends, don’t get me wrong). So I took the leap and listed samples of my work on Etsy. My fingers are crossed, this is something I really enjoy doing, and isn’t that what everyone wants – to get paid to do something they really enjoy?

Stop by and take a look when you have a chance…   The Best Diaper Cake I Have Ever Made  Next Stop, a Towel Cake for my counsin’s wedding… stay tuned!
