There’s just something wonderful about a weekend with no real commitments or responsibilities. I toiled over sweet, heart-shaped shortbread cookies dipped in red candy melts and sprinkles for my girls. I tried my hand at some cake pops as seen on Bakerella.
They turned out OK, but I quickly discovered a few things I could have done to make them better. It was an all-day project so I don’t think I’ll be making them again soon. My photo doesn’t do them justice, but the ones on the Bakerella site are so cute!
I recently took an idea from do it yourself magazine and made a beautiful wall-mount jewelry organizer for my oldest daughter, Haley. It’s almost ready to be hung. Once it’s done I’ll snap a photo and post it here. Now I’m working on a large wall board for Hanna, my younger daughter. It has corkboards so far. It will have some magnet strips and other fun stuff (yet to be determined) for her room-organizing pleasure. OK, for my room-organizing pleasure. Pictures of it to come, too.
I’m working through the route this blog will take in the future so posts may be somewhat sporadic as I work through the planning stages. I hope you’ll bear with me. Great things are on the horizon….
