I was in the card aisle at Target (my favorite place on Earth) the other day. I had to buy 3 cards for 3 different friends hitting really exciting milestones. I bought an engagement card, a wedding card and a new home card. It got me to thinking about how genuinely excited I am for all my friends and the exciting things happening for them. So, of course, I had to get them gifts along with their cards. I had the perfect gift for the "new home" in my back pocket from Pinterest. I had seen it a while ago and it actually made me laugh out loud. I've been waiting and waiting for someone to buy a house specifically so I could make this humorous housewarming gift. I became fast friends with our wedding photographer, Kiersten, during the wedding planning process. She's one of those people who practically glows from the inside out. She just has this incredibly warm disposition that made even my camera-shy husband feel instantly comfortable around her. Kiersten has an exciting career as a wedding photographer, splitting her time between shooting destination weddings in Mexico in the fall and winter and shooting Jersey Shore weddings, her home-base, in the spring and summer. She is the definition of a "snow bird" and I told her repeatedly how jealous I was that she pretty much never had to be cold (my dream come true). But Kiersten looked at it a bit differently. While she recognized her sheer luck of location, she also longed to set down some roots and stop living out of suitcases. What she really wanted was to have a place she could actually call HOME. She and I share the same love affair with the Jersey Shore - we were both born and raised here. In fact, she loves the Atlantic Ocean so much, I'm convinced she's part mermaid. I was over the moon when Kiersten told Brian and I that she not only purchased her first home, but she bought a condo in the same exact condo complex where Brian and I lived during the first 3 years we dated. In a strange coincidence, we even figured out that she had looked at our actual condo when it was on the market. I can't tell you how many fond memories I have from our first place. We probably walked the two miles to the beach with our dog about a thousand times while we lived there. I can't think of a better place for Kiersten, an avid surfer and beach bum, to finally call HOME. Here is the super easy and affordable gift I gave Kiersten to congratulate on her new home: 4 wine glasses ($1 each at The Dollar Tree) I added chalkboard labels to each wine glass (left-over from our wedding favors) 1 bottle of white wine (I highly recommend Trader Joe's for cheap but tasty wine) 1 hammer ($9 at Lowe's) 1 piece of chalk (because people always forget to include chalk when a gift has a chalkboard!) Onto the next gift....

A few weeks ago, I helped host a wedding shower for my friend, Marie. When all the bridesmaids were talking about ideas, we decided a kitchen theme shower would be really cute. I started researching cute ideas for a kitchen shower. I came across the idea of making a towel cake - like a diaper cake but with towels and kitchen utensils. So of course, I decided I wanted to make it! We decided that would be the hostess gift for the shower and I took on the task of buying all the stuff and making the cake! I bought some of Marie's dish towels and utensils she registered for, and then just mixed them with some white towels and some other cute and useful kitchen items. The base the cake sits on is a wooden cutting board. I'm so proud of how it turned out! My mom helped me make it, but we really had no instructions to go by. We just played around with ideas of how to make it stand and after about an hour figured it out and it was easy to build then. Here are pictures of the finished product: Marie with her gift: All the hostesses/bridesmaids with Marie: Mary Elena made these fabulous cupcakes with cute fondant kitchen utensils on top: We had so much fun throwing Marie's shower!

I made these as little gifts for a housewarming gathering recently. They're little Tea-Towel Cupcakes aka towelettes disquised as cupcakes! LOL! Have fun making them! These are the supplies you need : Circle Puncher | Red and Green Scrap Paper | A Leaf Puncher | Ribbons | Paper Cupcake Liners | Toothpicks | Double Sided Tape | Small Hand - Kitchen Towelettes | Packaging Plastics. The size of your towels will determine the size of your cupcakes. They're supposed to be daity, so pick rectangular towels. I actually did one at the store to determine the right size (one that fits a cupcake liner. Do this if you don't want to end up with 2 dozen towels that are wrong in size! I chose these lovely ribbed kitchen towels. They have a beautiful texture and only RM2 each from Jusco. Usually towelettes come in sets of 4s and 5s and in a range of coordinating colours. Pick one according to your colour theme. And yes, rectangular ones work perfectly. You'll see what I mean. Prepare the cherry on top. Punch red circles (the cherry on top), or if you have other cute punches, other printed cupcake toppers will also do. Punch leaves. Enough for the amount of towels you have. Use a double sided tape and sandwich a toothpick with the leaf in the middle. Press and set aside. Don't they look cute already! Make enough for the amount you plan to have. Use your imagination, you can use beads like gumdrops, or a lollipop too. Here comes the tricky part. It's not that hard once you get the first one right. Almost like origami or linen napkin folding. Spread a towel on a flat surface just like on the picture. Fold the top and bottom of the towel to the middle. Fold again into the middle. The height of the teatowel cupcake is determined here. So use your noodles and figure out a good height. No worries, you can undo the towel and try again. In one corner fold down to make a triangle. Pick the folded down corner and fold upwards to make the triangle thicker. Making sure the pointed triangle is slightly jutting out of your line of towel. This will form the peak of your cupcake. Roll around the peak once. You'll find that the towel will slant a little. This is good and natural for the next step. Tighten the roll as you go. Now, fold the band of towel outwards as in the picture. Continue the roll and folding outwards as you go. Rolling... Wrapping... Now the towel looks like a big dollop of cream. Hold firmly. Tie a ribbon slightly above the last fold to secure. I find gross grain ribbons work better. The silky ones require a lot of skill since it is slippery. I struggled at first, but you'll get the hang of it after the 3rd and so on. If not, get a nimble assistant to tie the ribbon while you hold on to one. Push the cherry sticks on top and place them on a cupcake liner each. Easy-Peasy, Super Cute! This is a horrible picture, but the plastic was so reflective. I wanted to show you how you can pack them in nice little glass packages and topped with a neat label. HAPPY CRAFTING! Do let me know if the tute was helpful and maybe share with me some photos of your own Teatowel Cupcake creations!!! Hugs!!!!
