Cupcake Clips Ad

So in the midst of all the craft show prep craziness I forgot to share my new ads. These were placed in the October GCS Mom's League newsletter and will continue to run for the rest of the year.

If you have any newsletters, directories, etc of kid related organizations that sell advertising, or you are looking for door prizes or a silent auction donation (anywhere, not just DFW) let me know.

I'd love to find more advertising opportunities.

Cupcake Cuties & Korkers

Everyday I have SUCH good intentions of blogging... I've actually had these pictures sitting on my desktop staring at me saying "blog... blog"...

Preparing for my first craft show has become a job within itself! The amount of inventory needed and logistics are all consuming...

On top of that I recently took over as Membership Chairman for the GCS Mom's League and that in itself is at minimum a part time job!

But I have to say I'm loving every minute of it! I cannot WAIT to take pictures of all of the inventory I now have... I have TONS of new products and just the mass quantity while still staying consistent with my quality has made it worth it!

The craft show has also encouraged me to learn new things... like pony-o's, cheer bows (did you know they aren't allowed to wear any metal when cheering?) and KORKERS!

First... here are some pictures that have been shared with me lately...

Precious Mallory hugging her little brother Jacob... what a great picture to show off her bow!
Mallory and her little smirk showing off her made to match Watermelon bow.
Oh sweet Ellen! Ready to cheer on the New York Mets!
Teaghan playing dress up in her M2M Halloween bow...
Hayley showing off her new Princess Pony-O


Onto the korkers! These are SO cute! They are super lightweight and stay on really well... all are hand sewn so they don't come apart (a concern with some korkers).


Big Korkers are $6
Small Korkers are $3 (Milla is wearing a small)

I'll post some pictures of my Halloween korkers tomorrow. Sorry this picture isn't better... Milla learned how to crawl on Monday and she is DONE with sitting down to take pictures... ah the joys!

Final Cupcake Cake

This weekend was Teaghan's 1st birthday. Her mom was my little sister in Kappa Kappa Gamma at North Texas and we share a new bond of having Fall 07 baby girls... so I agreed to make her cupcake birthday party come alive with a giant Wilton cupcake... it was not easy, but TOTALLY worth it!

Here is the final cake...
Teaghan enjoying her cake...

I gave up a little control and let the big girls decorate with skittles... the cherry is a gumball!

Here are Teaghan and Milla... I made both of the girl's bows and Milla's cupcake shirt. (we joke that they are future college roommates)...
Here's a closeup of Milla's cute shirt... it turned out really well!

Pony-O's, Streamers & Princess Bows

A lot of my friends have older daughters that won't wear bows anymore but still want something frilly. These pony-o's and hair streamers are the perfect solution! They are each attached to a no metal white pony tail holder. Each are $5.
Navy & footballs can only mean one thing... GO COWBOYS! Streamers can be designed for any team.
Perfect for your girly soccer star! Team colors can be added in by request.
Perfect for Halloween with candy corn, ghosts and pumpkins.
A real TREAT! Our handmade cupcake centers are back and featured in this super sweet streamer.

For a more classic look check out our pony-o. This simple bow can be requested in any color or with a print. Rhinestone embellishments can be added to the center.


We have a new princess collection... all are $6...
This super girly ribbon says "Princess" all over it and has crowns and butterflies. The rhinestone crown in the center gives it a little extra "bling".
Who is your favorite Disney princess? Always hard for me to decide. All are available for this precious bow. Bow can be made any color to match a specific princess shirt.
M2M 2007 Gymboree's Tres Chic... super cute poodles with hearts and a rhinestone heart center.
For your Prima Ballerina... perfect to wear to ballet class or pair with Gymboree's 2007 line The Ballet.
