Zebra Box

so who isn't tight for storage?  i know i sure am.  so when i was looking HERE i just about died at the cuteness!  all this is was is a diaper wipes box.  Pampers to be exact.  rather awesome if you ask me!  i haven't decided if i am going to add the ribbon, then i wouldn't be able to move it from room to room as i reorganize and stuff through my house.  so we will see.
anyway- LOVE it!
duct tape and a box.  who would have thought?!?!

Sonic Cake!!!

so for my oldest sons birthday, he loves sonic.
and strawberries.
so i decided to make a cake using fondant again.  i was really nervous about using fondandt againconsidering the last time the stuff tasted awful!!!  i mean super disgusting.  so i talked to my dearest friend Mandy and she gave me a recipe for some marshmellow fondant.  i was scared to make that too just cuz i'm kinda a pansy when it comes to trying new things by myself.
anyway, i made the 2 rounds and cut them each in half, iced, strawberried, and iced and then 'dirty iced' the whole cake and refridgerated it, then i iced it a again.


i then made all my sonic pieces....

and then i put it all together!!!!  and i have to say, i thought it was soooooooooo awesome!!!!
i am really pleased with myself, and how it turned out.  it gave me hope and excitment for the future projects!


and here i am with the awesome soncic cake hiding in the pantry so the birthday boy couldnt see it.
he LOVED it and so it made all the stressing and worrying so worth it!

anyway- yay for more cakes!!!!

felt flower on a sweater pillow

so i made this pillow out an old sweater..... i hadn't worn since high school.  why i
 still have it is beyond me, but there ya go.  it was super soft and i already had the pillow form, so it was super easy.  then i decided to make a bunch of flowers from felt.  i placed them and they were awesome.  the 6 year old owner is ECCSTATIC!!!  super cute.
 it is as soft as it looks.

Tooth Fairy Pillow

so we have this happening here now, how is this happening already? so then in all my blog hopping i found a few of these.  this is the one that i can find right now,  there was another one that i had, that i used a bit more, but i cant find it for the life of me find it.  very sad, but i will keep looking, and when i find it, i will put it here.


but it was really rather easy.  and that must be easy, especially for me to say that, cuz i get kinda scared of the sewing machine.  i know i shouldn't be scared of it, but i kinda am.
anyway.  she LOVES it and that is what matters!
