Softball sports wreath. I used a grapevine wreath. Cut strips of purple and white fabric (our school colors) and pawprint ribbon. Tied the fabric around the grapevine wreath. I found a wooden baseball at a craft store and painted it neon yellow like a softball and added my daughters number (15). You can also add your team name like GO TIGERS!

Candy Bouquets
From Birthdays to Graduations and just about any special occasion. A Candy Bouquet is so easy to put together. A quick trip to the Dollar Store or local drugstore and about $15 and some creativity and you have a gift you can't go wrong with! I used a box, a bucket and a beer mug for these three. I used floral foam to secure the candy that I taped (using shipping tape) to lollipop sticks, and then inserted them into the foam. Add tissue paper, shredded paper, and curling ribbon to add bulk.
Liquor Bouquet
This is an awesome Birthday gift for a 21 year old!
Dollar Store Mug, add floral foam and Shredded paper and a Happy Birthday Spray from Dollar Store. I used small vodka bottles and taped them (clear shipping tape) to lollipop sticks and added curled ribbon to the bottles with tape. Put a Balloon in the middle and voila! This is also great for a party for anyone who may like to party and you just don't know what to get them.

Cakes
Special occasion cakes...possibilities are endless! The Barbie cake is made using the Pampered chef batter bowl and two 8" round cakes. Start by stacking the cakes using icing in between each layer. "Dirty" ice (ice using plain white buttercream icing) the cakes and use a lollipop stick pressed into te layers to hold them together. Cover the Barbie doll legs with saran wrap and insert through the cakes. Icing colors should coordinate with Barbie's dress...I used the Rose tip to ice her dress starting at the top and creating layers to the bottom. I finished it off with Roses and ribbon.
The Easter cake is a double layer cake, buttercream iced and decorated with colored (green food coloring) coconut for grass, Jellybeans and a Chocolate Bunny!
