Cookies, Pumpkins, and a Very Happy 20th Birthday!

Hello, guys! It is now 11 o'clock at night and I am about to start winding down from a FANTASTIC 20th birthday! I spent some time with some great people and I feel so blessed! :) I did manage to list some new things on Etsy! One of the newest things I have made are these quote decorations! Here is one that says LOVE! There are a few more sets further into the post!

I also made some pumpkins that have a crackled look to them... they go along with the quote pumpkins pretty nicely! :D I have four different kinds of these, as you can see below.

Here are some more text pumpkins! It's been fun putting the colors together and working with the crackle medium.

I have also made some cookies! Here are some chocolate chip cookies! I love chocolate chip cookies SO MUCH. I just recently had the chance to make some real ones! They turned out awesome!

And here is another experiment! They are autumn leaf cookies! 

That's all for today! I'm exhausted and I am looking forward to getting some sleep! I hope you all are doing well! I have been asked a couple times today if it feels any different to be 20 years old... and it kinda DOES. Normally I don't feel that different on my birthday, but today I felt... BRIGHTER than I normally do. I can only guess that it has to do with all of the great support I get from my family and friends- the ones in my every day life and the ones here on the internet! Thank you all so much for your support and care!

As always, if you are interested in any of these items check out my Etsy shop HERE! :)

Brownies and Cookies - Custom Order!

Hello everyone! Well, I have been back in the shop and making some lovely new things! I have some ALL NEW miniatures coming soon, I just need to take care of a few things before I share those.

I recently received a very large custom order! A super sweet lady bought 12 cakes, 30 brownies, and 4 dozen cookies. So far I have got the cookies and brownies almost done! Here is a little peak at what I have so far....

 

I just recently finished the brownies and I have to add some nut toppings. Since I was in the groove of these, I made some extras! I will list those as soon as I have this large order completed! :D

As for the cookies, the order included 2 dozen chocolate chip, 1 dozen sugar cookies, and 1 dozen iced sugar cookies. As soon as I get this last batch of things out of the oven I am going to bed, but tomorrow I will make the cakes! Those are going to be REALLY fun to make. (They're ombre cakes!)

 

Oh! As far as the other new items, I am experiementing with some miniature pottery and I also made some cupcake bases! I will hopefully soon have some regular cupcakes and also some mini-mini cupcakes. Haha! Here are a couple pictures to give you an idea-

 

Friday is over and it was a very productive day! But I still have a lot to do... I need to work on my design project, do my homework, and also work on my other project with my friend. I have everything planned out for the whole weekend, but I don't think I will get to work on my house. Ergh! I have collected a lot of egg cartons! I should be done with the chimney in no time... once I get started. Haha!

Well, thanks for stopping by! I will check in once I complete this order to show you guys how everything turned out. I will also (hopefully) have some of the new items for the shop made soon. We'll see!

XOXO

Home Sweet Home! + Starting late on Christmas items!

Hello, my loves!!! I miss you all so much! I had a wonderful time at my Nanny's, but I almost went INSANE! Well... sorta. (I'm basically already insane :] ) For some reason blogger wouldn't let me upload any images and so I got discouraged and didn't make much while I was gone! I did, however, make some of these!

 They are Christmas Cookie ornaments! :D :D :D

Don't they look SCRUMPTIOUS! They aren't exactly miniature, but they are small! Each one only measures a few inches tall, but I think they came out pretty realistic, don't you!?

The sugar cookies and gingerbread cookies are just the start... I want to also make regular cookies, in different sizes. But hey.... I ain't making any promises! I have been SUPER DUPER busy and my time isn't going to free up any time soon.

Over on the left you can see a chocolate chip cookie! This was actually the hardest to make- because I want them to be REALLY realistic and I didn't have any real chocolate chip cookies on hand to look at for reference.

Here I added some red cord! Very simple, and very cute!

Below you can see the gingerbread man and the chocolate chip cookie on their strings and hanging on the tree! :)

As for some actual miniatures, I will have to wait until at least Sunday to start making some. I just got back home last night and my parents have scheduled a trip to the mountains (again). This time we are going to see all the Christmas lights! :D :D :D

Anyways, I will have about a week to work on miniatures before I go BACK out of town. We are going back to my Nanny's on Christmas day.

And don't worry! For those of you that like to keep up with my model house, I will also work on that some next week! I have a ton of bricks cut out and I would like to put some Christmas decorations on it as well!

Thanks for stopping by!

SO MANY CHARMS AND THINGS!

This took me all day to put together, but I had so much fun making the labels, and making up each package, and making the coupons. I also made some new cake charms today. I wanted to re-try some of the ones I did before. Expect pictures of those soon! After I upload those, I probably won't make a lot of cake charms for a while. I want to start making some different things! I still have a VERY long list of ideas from every one when I had my give-away.

Thanks so much for taking the time to read my post and look at my pictures!
