Rock Candy Cupcakes

These were SO yummy! Butter Cream/Lemon Icing!

I made these for a shower and I thought they were too cute not to share. I am in love with decorating with rock candy. I wish I could have found it in orange but instead I used orange sugar. Her colors were navy, orange, light blue and grey.

Join the Sticker Club

A few weeks ago my boys received a letter in the mail stating they were part of a sticker club. It was one of those things my husband loves to call a "Pyramid Scheme" of sorts. My sons gets a letter from a friend that requires a pack of stickers to be sent to another child on the club letter and then we mail out 6 letters to a friends of each of my sons requesting stickers and you get the idea. It sounded really fun!

So, instead of doing what the original letter asked and copying a copy of a letter that has been copied 100's of times, I just typed another one up that can be downloaded straight from this website. So, no more copying! Are you ready to start your kiddo/s in a really cool club? Click the image to download the letter!

Instagram...I love this stuff!

It just occurred to me that I never invited my blog readers to join me on Instagram. Here are a few of my recent posts there. If you are an Instagram addict like me, follow and I'll follow back. ; )

What can I do with this lavender?

Fruity Water! Yumm!

Anyway, I love sharing and seeing everyday life among us. It can be quite inspiring to see the best moments of your daily life. So, look me up at homespunthreads

My favorite new paint color! Spa...

A new fresh coat of paint for my living room. The color I chose was "Spa" by Benjamin Moore. Love this color on my living room walls. It is very subtle and is a very little sage green. Which goes well with my sky blue entry way. I am seeing some changes I might make. The bright colors in the entryway may be a little much but I love them so they'll have to find a place.

I also took down my pallet and painted it with a very, very pale pink. My dad thought it was crazy when he heard I used a pallet on the wall in my living room but just look at it...

I think it is quite beautiful, in it's ruggedness and given a new live other than just being a "skid or transportation flat". Plus, I love it simply because it helps display my most treasured memories.
