Sweet Tooth Sundays: Cupcake Ideas I Love

These are some cupcake ideas that I really, really love, but will probably never, ever get around to actually making.

Cover Buttons

A package of cover buttons at the fabric store are only about 3 dollars each and you can buy them in whatever size you want. The fabric scraps are free because you should already have those. yay! Here are some cut ideas of what you can do with them:

Uh-mazing Upcycles

Sorry for the title, I was in the mood for alliteration. Here are some super creative to decorate with ordinary objects you can find just kicking around your house.

Dixie Cup Light Strand

by Good Housekeeping

An old rake upcycled into a necklace holder. how creative.

I only wonder why she seems to have so many strands of the same pearls.

by Twig Home

Shoe Box upcycle into wall canvas.

I have been searching for a cheap way to do this.

light bulb turned vase.

It looks so modern and eco friendly.

Yarn Wreaths

These became a last trend last Christmas and people have been making them for all the seasons since then.

I work at Joann Fabrics and every time a holiday rolls around, styrofoam wreath forms go flying off the shelves. My manager said that she didn't really understand the trend and I had never heard of it, so I went home and googled it.

When I saw all the cute yarn wreaths, I couldn't understand how it could NOT be a trend. These are so cute and probably cheaper than buying a real wreath.

Ok, so this one is not actually yarn, but it would look sooo cute in my someday nautical themed bathroom.

If I ever have loads of money and the opportunity to through down a big huge shindig and invite lots of important people I would whip out a dessert table that looked something like these:

Fabric Decoupage

A while ago I made these fabulous fabric covered magnet boards. I should really post a tutorial for all of you, but that will have to wait for another day. In fact, I'm not sure if I even have a picture. gasp!

Here are some creative ideas:

Decorate your wall with fabric covered canvas. I really want to do this, but canvas is expensive. There has go to be a cheaper way.
