{I am suffering from serious life-lust. I discovered brooklyn to west quite a while ago....get me....but this amazing lady's work has been showing up all over blog world lately and I felt I had to comment. This woman is my inspiration. I heart cakes and I heart carpentry and I heart making stuff. So this gal is definitely up there in my estimations with actual real-life friends of mine who can drive JCBs and cranes, who can grow delicious vegetables and who teach people to be happier, who can cut their own hair decently and make their own furniture, who can dance and swim underwater and give sound advice and make jewelry and dresses and knock em dead cocktails. It seems I am blessed with many outrageously talented women in my life and this post is for ya'll. I heart you}

*scoot over cupcakes, there is a new fella in town*

*from make something. i love this blog; it makes me want to drag out the two sewing machines under my bed and rustle something up right now


{I had cupcakes at my wedding 6 years ago; I eat cupcakes at every and any opportunity; I recently caved in and bought a classy glass cupcake stand. But even I have to admit I'm ready for a change...could this big boy be the cake I've been waiting for? And how cute are the flags cut with those special crinkle scissors that weigh a tonne?}
