{ Look What I Made! }

I was hired to make a birthday cake for a couple of twin boys. So I enlisted my trusty marshmallow fondant maker (Rob) and we went to work. Four Dozen cupcakes and two mini cakes later and we'd officially created a true Mario Party! And by the way, the Goombas and Mario's facial hair are made of Tootsie Rolls! Yum!

Look what I made!

I love Halloween in every way imaginable. It is so fun to decorate for, and costumes are probably one of my favorite inventions of all time. I love to get dressed up. I just wish the Mr. got into it as much as I do. Oh well, he allows me to move forward with my plans (unless they involve tights) so I guess I can't ask for much else.

Anyways, I made up these cute window decorations out of spray-painted tin cans and other recycled kitchen containers of all shapes and sizes. We drilled holes and used a metal cutter in the wood shop to get these to work. Then I brought them to life with little tea candles. They span my whole window sill under the cob webs I hung up. Next project...Spiders! Let me know what you think.

Also this is a double dose of "Look what I made". I have a wonderful friend who got married this weekend and let me make a small wedding cake as a gift for the occasion.  I thought it turned out very nice, especially since Rob held it in his lap for the 2 1/2 hour drive and we almost had an accident 20 minutes before the drop off point. Yay hubby! I just love the sugar sprinkles on the top. Glitter always gives things a little bit of a boost.
