Sometimes I think of some really great things to make either for my shop or just for my own use. Sometimes these ideas can take months to come to full fruition because I get so doubtful of my abilities. But alas, last night I made  a great discovery, an idea I had for making hats that little more realistic and relevant to the 1940s style that I often chase. Deep down I knew I could do it, but I get so scared of failing, that I don’t end up doing it! But after figuring out a very good foundation for making hats I feel way more confident to trial out some others ideas I’ve had for years months!

Also, I’m starting to get pretty excited about Valentines day. My boyfriend and I are pretty big on spending quality time together. But Valentines just makes it a little extra special. I’m thinking some old romance movies, cupcakes and snuggles! Here are some tutorials that I’ve found and will be working on before Valentines. Also some valentines inspiration pictures…..plus loads of cupcake ideas! Gotta love those cupcakes. x

I will be making a lovely pancake or crepe breakfast on valentines morning….how romantic to add little hearts to the tea bags!

I will be starting on these tonight! I’ve seen these around before, but this tutorial is really simple, well in theory!

Remember painting with carved potatoes? This idea is fun+cute!

Kurt LOVES my devils food cake and my cupcakes (Yes that is red velvet up top but it was cute and I wanted to show you!) but he cant stand chocolate cupcakes! SO, I’m going to make a cool devils food cake and I’m going to try out this amazing idea for rainbow cupcakes! I think I’m going to do cream cheese for the frosting!

This is the cake version of the rainbow phenomena….but this is the best one I’ve seen yet!

And these because they are just so darn cute!
