Here are a few projects I worked on last week. I'm finding myself staying busy in the kitchen, but have learned how to manage my time with all the necessary prepping that goes on when making, baking, and decorating a cake. I'm really enjoying making cakes and think I found a new passion. However, I decided after making that movie cake, I don't love cake making more than my family. Last week, I made an effort to keep the house cleaned and picked up, the laundry caught up, and made sure to play outside with Gavin multiple times a day, and took him places just to get out of the house!
Saturday was my friend Stephanie's birthday. We went out to dinner Thursday night so I surprised her with this cake. She likes the color purple... can you tell?!?!
I decided since this was our last Easter in the states for a while, I wanted to make all of Gavin's friends a little something to celebrate Easter! My mom found these cute mini bunny cake pans so I went to town making them with that Funfetti cake mix! I colored the icing and copied the look off of a picture I saw of an Easter bunny. I thought they turned out precious and they tasted delicious!
For our family Easter dinner, everyone was asked to bring something for lunch so I decided to make a cake, figures huh?!?! My mom also found me a bunny shaped pan so I wanted to use it while I could. This cake was just a bigger version of the mini cakes.
A friend of mine from church asked me to make a baby sign for one of her cousin's baby shower. The baby's bedroom is themed with butterflies. I found this sweet butterfly at Michael's and even though the colors weren't exactly the same as her bedding, I went with the look. It ended up turning out really cute. I found some subtle beads to put on the sign that really livened the look up! This was a fun sign to make and I was very thankful my mom was in town to make the big bow on top. I really need to learn how to make bows!
Hope you and your family had a blessed Easter!
