Smell My Feet..

Trick or Treat!

I'm really loving these fake candies!!

If you have a friend or maybe a coworker that is always dipping into your stash, this would be a great way to prank them!

I have certainly fooled my family and friends with my creations, and my poor kiddos think everything is fake!! heehee..

These have been on my "must create" list for quite some time and I finally got to make them this year! They look just like their real life cousins and look fabulous as bowl fillers and decor props, plus  pesky critters have no interest in them whatsoever!

ok, gotta go find some real chocolate to munch on now...;0)

Have a fabulous day!

She's Mellllllltttingggggg!!!!!!

I love being a goofball...because it means I can derive pleasure from the goofiest things!

Which of course makes life more enjoyable, haha ;0)

99.9% of my items are one of  a kind because I hand make most of the embellishments used on them, so I sit and make a batch of what inspires me and I just don't know if I will remake any. 

So if you see something you like, grab it before it's gone! :0)

Imagine Out Loud Store

I just created some new witch themed fake cupcakes and they really crack me up!

It all started out with the witch crash legs and I am so loving the way they came out!!

I wanted the frosting to look like the underside of a fancy dress, 

because my witches are fun witches and they love to get all dolled up!

Then this idea popped into my mind!..How about a melting witch?!

How lucky are they to be melting into delicious frosting? hehe

I LOVE these so much! Every time I look at them I can't help but to start singing,

"ding dong the witch is dead..mean old witch...la la la"

Now that you have that song in your head too, here is another smile maker to enjoy!

This cupcake really makes me laugh because if you look closely the cupcake liner looks like it is her legs, and makes her completely adorable!

I hope you enjoyed my ladies as much as I have enjoyed creating them!

Thanks for stopping by!

Spiders

I have been wanting to create these little guys for some time, and now they are finally here!

I LOVE holding something that only once lived in my imagination!

I hope ya'll love them too!

I only made two, and each are one of a kind creations.

Imagine Out Loud Store

Each spider is sitting on top of a jumbo sized cupcake.

I swear, I can just imagine these guys prancing right off the cupcakes and doing a little tap dance for us! :-D

Thanks for stopping by, I will be sharing more Halloween creations with you soon!

Our Home At Christmas

I hope everyone is enjoying their day and "Happy the Mayan's Were Wrong Day," haha!

I thought I'd share what our home looks like for Christmas..I am a LITTLE obsessed with the "sweets" theme and love all the fake cookie,candy,cake decor. 

This is my kitchen tree, Over the years I have added to it and I'm totally in love with it this year! I actually made all the ornaments for this tree myself, except for the candy garland, a couple store bought ornies and the little fruit tarts. 

What is made by me is: ribbon candy, sugar cookies, spritz cookie, some of the little candies, lolli pops, hot chocolate, cupcakes and mini cakes. Crazy, I know, but it makes me happy :0) I actually made some ornaments to sell also but never got the chance to put them up on etsy, so I'm hoping to make some more and sell next year!

Here are some pictures of our dining room, where the sweet theme continues.

I actually made all the fake sugar cookies for this wreath this year and had a blast!

I collect ceramic cakes and pies, so they are perfect to display with my Christmas obsession, hehe.

This is a faux gingerbread house I made a few years ago, and I'm looking forward to making some more soon.

Our living room

We are crazy and buy a huge tree to then place on top of a dining table!

It was this way last year too, but it keeps little hands away from ornaments, and fills up the corner nicely also!

My favorite spot on the tree:

and lastly, here's a picture of the 2 miracles in my life, I thank the Lord for them everyday and can't believe they are truly here. For years we imagined and dreamed about them and now here they are to celebrate Christmas with us! :0)
