Cupcakes & Tea Parties

Hello sweet friends! So lovely of you to stop by! 

Would you like to see what I've been up to the past two weeks?

Well, besides the not so fun part of cleaning out children's closets, working in the yard, and reorganizing the office and my little studio. I have been a busy gal working on a fun DIY project for my daughter Vivian's bedroom.

She is now officially sleeping in her big girls bed. We have said "Bye Bye" to her baby crib.

I splurged on this FABULOUS pink tulle ruffle bedskirt from Garnet Hill.

Once I took her crib out of the room I was on to the next project.

Decorating a $10 table and chair set I found at a garage sale.

I wanted to turn this into something really cute. So I brainstormed until I came up with the perfect idea. I had several gorgeous petticoats from my event that were not being used, and I wanted to decorate it with a cupcake theme. I own a few cupcake pieces of Jenny & Aaron of Everyday is a Holiday, and thought how precious would it be to decorate her table and chairs with their yummy sweet images! 
 

After 2 weeks….

Ta-Da!!!!!!

I took the sherbert colored petticoats and made them into chair and table skirts.
