Mason Bay Etsy Shop

It has been a while since my last post, but my time has been very valuable, the last few weeks. Every minute I have to spare, I spend with my children.


Here is a little something, I would love to share with you. I will try hard this next week to post more.


I started making hair accessories as a way to justify watching television in the middle of the afternoon. I have been selling them at my Etsy shop Mason Bay.


A while back my sister and I had decided to start making necklace's, earrings, and rings. We finally added the new cargo to our store.





I love designing the necklace's, and I get to spend time with my sister, so what could be better.





These are just a few of my favorites, so head on over to Mason Bay and check out the amazing necklace's and let me know which on is your favorite.


Don't forget, I'm still waiting for 115 to give away something lovely! 


Until Next Time,

Cake Pops

Once again, Im in a baking mood!


Im really not sure what is going on here, but I know my children and husband are loving it.




I love cake pops. I feel in love with these about 3 years ago. I made a red velvette one with cream cheese. Lets just say they were scrumptous.



This time I made Strawberry cake pops.


First you make a Strawberry cake, let it cool, and crumble it up. This is were the children come in. What child doesnt LOVE getting messy.



Next I added Strawberry frosting and mixed it up well. Roll into balls and put in the fridge for about an hour. I dipped the sticks into chocolate, and then put them into the balls. Next I put the balls into the fridge again.



Dip into white chocolate, and add sprinkles.




One blog that has amazing pops is Bakerella. You can do some amazing things. I was thinking a Veggie Tale pop would be awsome for a birthday party. Maybe for Mason party I will attempt them.


These pops are Strawberry delicious, and deffinitly worth all the work.

Spring Cupcakes

Some months, I really get into baking. March has been that month.

Today I baked Chocolate cupcakes.



Spring colored frosting, looks so beautiful on the tops of the chocolate cakes.


In Martha Stewarts magazine, I seen some neat designs you can do with colored cupcakes. You could arrange them in different patterns for any type of occasion.





I put small chocolate chips on top of the frosting to top off the delightful cupcakes.


I can not wait for spring, so I am bringing it in with these wonderful colors.

Frosting Recipe,
cream together
1/2 c. solid shortening
1/2 c. butter
add remaining ingredients until well mixed.
4 c. powdered sugar
2 T. milk- I added a bit more.


I am still waiting to hit 115 followers, so I can give something wonderful away.
