Recipe:

cupcake fondue

3 cups powdered sugar
1/3 cup liquid (orange juice, fruit juice, milk, or water)
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
Miniature-size cupcakes in the flavor of your choice, cooled and unfrosted
Assorted sprinkles, chopped nuts, and other toppings

1.Make a batch of your favorite mini cupcakes – homemade or from a mix. Make them nice and small so you don’t feel guilty about enjoying 2 or 3 of them. If you use paper liners for baking, remove them after the cupcakes have cooled. Pound cake or any other firm cake works well for skewering, but any cake will do. I used a simple yellow box-mix cake. Allow to cool completely before dipping.

2. Make the fondue: Whisk together powdered sugar, orange juice, and corn syrup.  Adjust the consistency with a drop of liquid or a dash more powdered sugar until you get have a smooth, thick glaze.  I used orange juice for the liquid portion to give it a citrus flavor and cheese-like yellow fondue color.  You could also use grape juice for a pastel purple, or milk/water and add your own coloring.

3. Pour frosting into the fondue pot.  There’s really no need to heat the mixture, but you can keep a small tea light or very low flame underneath just for looks!  Display sprinkles and toppings in small ramekins or portion cups and arrange around the fondue pot.  Skewer cupcakes in the side and dip the top half into the fondue, then flip the cupcake over and the frosting will drip nicely down the sides.  Sprinkle liberally with your favorite toppings.

Happy Fairy Birthday Party

Ok, ok, it took me a few weeks to get this birthday party blogged.... May is one of the craziest months of the year. So, I left my house a mess & laundry everywhere to visit the cyber world to blog about my daughter's 3rd birthday party (& I'm pretty sure that is a run on sentence, but it gets the point across). So, here we go!

I am normally completely prepared & done a week before the party but for some reason I wasn't able to get into the party planning mode this year. I had been purchasing things here & there for the party when things went on sale or when I saw cute things at dollar tree. To get myself motivated I set up a table, about a week before the party, on a card table in my garage. It actually worked really well because every time I went by the garage I thought about what I needed to do next for the party.

A really cute idea I came up with (well I probably didn't invent but it was new to me) was the way I wrapped the silverware. I had bought ribbon to do the traditional curly ribbon around the silverware but when I started I wasn't liking the look of it. So, I had found a stamp set of Tinkerbell at dollar tree & didn't really know what I was going to do with it. I decided to stamp it onto white scrap booking paper & cut into strips to glue around the wrapped silverware. It turned out sooooo cute!!  I will definitely be doing this from now on! Loved the way it turned out!

Another easy (fairly inexpensive) addition to the party was buying printables from an etsy shop. You purchase the printable that you like & they seller sends you the images so you can get them printed at a printer like Kinkos or print them at your house. I printed them at home & only used a fraction of what was included. I used http://www.etsy.com/listing/69552821/fairy-garden-printable-party-decor.

Super cute & it matched perfectly. My only complaint with this was the color printed differently then it looked on the screen but other than that it was a cute addition.

I also found some really cute crystal stickers in the dollar bin at Micheal's. They worked out perfectly for adding a little special touch.

 My best friend, her mother in law, & I sewed these super cute Peter Pan hats. They were really simple & turned out super cute! They went perfectly with the glow in the dark swords I purchased at Dollar Tree. I also made some simple flower headbands for the little fairies & purchased glow in the dark wands from Dollar Tree as well. Those were the biggest hit!

Here are a few more pictures of everything else! I scored some AMAZING deals! I purchase almost everything through Dollar Tree & Micheal's dollar bins. Hope you enjoy & that I inspire you to be creative with what you have! 

Birthday Fairy

Yay! It was such a fun day & wasn't too stressful! Now, off to work on more headbands......

Until Next Time--

Still. Alive.

So, it has been kinda crazy around here! After Easter, we went into party mode. May is one of the craziest months of the year & even more crazy this year. YES, I am still alive....very tired, but alive. I have been working on a few new flower creation & plan on taking pictures of them if the rain lets up by tomorrow! Also, cannot wait to blog about the fairy birthday party I just threw my daughter this past weekend! It was so fun (& not as stressful as normal)! I will get that blogged by the end of the week! PROMISE! Hope everyone is doing well & enjoying the bipolar weather we are having! I know that I sure am! <3

Until next time!
