Coming along nicely...

I havent posted for a while, been quite busy but I can't put my finger on what I have been so busy with, hopefully I'm not the only one like that.

The playroom is coming along nicely, all the furniture has been assembled and put up, I have made all the soft furnishings that needed making and am waiting for a few items I have grabbed from ebay and then all will be revealed.

I am quite pleased with myself for the items I have made, I am a novice sewer and before now had only made a pegbag. I have made curtains, a door stop and some book slings which I am most pleased with as they have saved me a fortune.

There have been a few new cake creations since my last blog update, some pics below...

At last...

I have finally convinced H that it is a good idea to make a start on the play room. I have bought the soft furnishings, well the curtains that I am going to cut up to make other things, and now need to drag him shopping for the heavy stuff.
I am hoping to one day have an entry on one of my favourite blogs http://ikeahacker.blogspot.com/ so will see how the play room hacks come together, they might be rubbish LOL!
I have cakes to make this week and got started today, I have 100 mini cupcakes with a small cake at the top of the cupcake tower, I also have a toy story themed cake to make which I am very excited about, I love making cakes I haven't tried before. I will show it to my 3 year old before I give it to my friend to see if it passes the test, if she knows what it is then there is hope for me yet!.
