Treasury Time: A Far Off Place

Rolling red dunes, wide open blue skies, and exotic animals - an African adventure, anyone?  The Kalahari would be an amazing destination for wedding (see some stunning photos here).  Capture the beauty of this landscape with a palette in rusts and neutrals, natural materials like raffia and seed pods, and succulent plants along with vases of strikingly bare branches.  My cake topper in "Kalahari" is perfect for a safari-inspired wedding in a mix of desert tan, zebra print, oxblood, coral, and a natural tribal print.

Geometry Lesson

Here's one of the new hoop designs I've been working on.  I actually started making these little triangles as a way to use up odds and ends of thread I had in my basket, but it came out pretty neat.  I just love all the colors!

I had such fun working with a customer on this polka dot cake topper for her daughter's first birthday - and here it is, among such a pretty array of yummy treats and flowers.  Doesn't it look lovely?  Happy, happy birthday, and thank you so much for sharing your photo!
