Feeling a bit crafty...

Sorry I wasn't up last night... it's caregiver appreciation week at my ds saycare so I was busy trying to get some things together for his teachers. I saw this great idea that a fellow pea had posted a bit ago and wanted to give it a try. Mini Cupcakes from Bakerella. She has got some great ideas!! TFL!!

These sure are cute but not sure if it's worth all the work. Mine aren't as pretty as hers!! LOL! And you def have to work fast.. I found out.

The finished product... I only made 12 of these and then 3 little ones without sticks. I couldn't make the rest, I ran out of time.

Also made these cute little goodie bags from scratch. I've made these before and I just love them! They have a little baggie of m&m's inside.

Photobucket
Just me... sporting my new camera strap from Kristied that I just love!! And I have plenty of room to move once it's around my neck! Amy had asked how much was left after its around my neck. I'm about 5'8" and it hangs right at my hip when I wear it across my shoulder.

Your cupcake lollipops are SO cute! I made these about a week ago and they were a LOT of work! I wasn't able to use chocolate for the bottoms because my older dd doesn't eat chocolate. Adorable treat bags too!

Thanks so much for the shot of you with the camera strap, it is sooooo cute! I've got to have one!!! :)
