just in time for valentines...


Weather you have a special someone or not there's no reason not to indulge a little on valentines and break out the homemade side of yourself with some baking and possibly a little art and crafts. Who wouldn't love a little handmade gift?

The cupcakes are a simple vanilla cupcake recipe with vanilla buttercream icing then dipped in a bowl of coconut, easy peasy. I made the little flags out of bamboo skewers and cardstock cut into little flags and the 'I love you' banner is a wee smaller version of this.


Hope your all having an amazing weekend and I'll be wishing you all the loveiest of valentines.

I love this picture. May I ask what the brownish background is? Probably just a brown wall but still!
