Let Them Eat Cake!

I thought I'd share these super easy cupcakes I put together for our church bake sale last weekend.  All of the goodies were supposed to be individually wrapped, and I'd seen this idea on Pinterest, so I knew what I was making! :) 

 

 

It really is a quick, inexpensive idea that could also be used as party favors.  In addition to the baking supplies, the packaging only cost $5 total.  The clear bags were $2 from Walmart, the ribbon was $2 from Walmart, and the punch cups were $1 for a pack of 10 from the Dollar Tree.  I made the tags myself, punched a hole in them, and tied them on!  The whole project only took about 10 minutes, not including baking time.

 

So, there you have it!  A quick, easy, and cost-effective idea for bake sales, showers, and birthday parties alike!

 

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend! :)

 

 

What Will It Bee?

A friend from church is planning a baby shower for her sister-in-law who has decided not to find out the gender of her baby.  Personally, I had to find out what we were having, and as early as possible!  I had way to much planning to do not to know the gender! ;)  However, everyone's different, and the 'What Will it Bee?' theme is a cute idea for these type of showers.  Also, it's generally easy to find black, white, and yellow decor.  This theme could also be used for a birthday party as well.  I love both of the ideas shown below! :)

Bee-utiful! ;)

Little Man Baby Shower

I absolutely adore this 'Little Man' collection from The Tomkat Studio!  I love everything about it - the colors, chevron pattern, mustaches, and bow ties.  And those bow tie cookies are just too cute to eat!  You can actually customize this collection for a baby shower or birthday party.  I've already purchased it to use for Cole's 1st birthday party!  I know it's a little early, but I knew this was the theme I wanted and it was 50% off the other day. ;)

Bubbles Baby Shower

While this is an adorable idea for a baby shower, I'm not sure many expectant women would appreciate a theme that was based on one of the most dreaded phrases a women can hear, "You look like you're about to POP! ;)  Oh well, it's still a very unique, creative idea for a baby shower! :)  For more pictures and details, visit: http://www.hostessblog.com/2011/03/a-modern-creative-bubbles-baby-shower/#more-35202
