Candy Cane Hearts

Here’s a fun idea for what to do with all of those leftover candy canes. If you don’t have any, I’ve seen them everywhere for really cheap, like 80% off.

Nie Nie is back!

Nie Nie is back! And SUCH an inspiration. I had to stop reading C Jane Enjoy It, her wonderful sisters blog where she would update Stephanie’s condition because every time I did I would ball my eyes out. But her writing is so clever & witty, I couldn’t stay away!

And if you don’t cry when you see THIS picture, I don’t know what would make you cry.

Stephanie is amazing. I love that we can learn from eachother in the large blog-o-sphere.Welcome Back Nie Nie! We’ve missed you!

AND, her house was named the #1 Home of 2008 in Cookie Magazine. If you’d like to see it, go here.It’s as amazing as she is!

Rock Candy & Cotton Candy

I have tried to talk a bride or two into serving Cotton Candy at their wedding, no takers. I served it at Cohen’s first birthday party, but the cotton candy machine was out of my budget. I have never thought of spinning the cotton candy on Rock Candy. THAT is a genius idea and how fun for a spring wedding! Maybe I can finally talk someone into it!

Photo found on Snippet & Ink. Image and idea from Martha Stewart Weddings.

Sugar City Journal Dolls

I love these dolls with no faces. They were made for the little girls for Sugar City Journal from  this Black Apple pattern. on Martha Stewart. I think that these are MUCH cuter without the faces and with the fabulous pairing of fabrics that she used.

Organize the Kitchen

All of these are printable downloads.

Freezer Labels (now you don’t have to wonder if that really is freezer burn)



Spice Displays (I would LOVE to do this project)



Cooks Helper (I have this one on my fridge and I use it all the time)



Keepsake Recipe Cards (for Grandma’s special recipes, well, not my Grandma, but Greg’s maybe!)
