Cupcake Ribbons

I don't know what I can do with these but I really wanted them. I saw them a week ago but didn't buy them because I was sure I have no use for them. During the week, I just kept thinking how adorable those cupcakes were and for just $1.99 each, it will be an inexpensive collectible!

Martha Stewart Glitter Set

I intended to use my Michael's 40% off coupon on a spool of beading thread. Once walked through the ribbon section, I saw this gorgeous set of glitter! Retails for $29.99 but after 40% and tax it was only $19.65. There are 24 assorted colors and comes out to only ~$0.82 a vial! The package suggests using these w/ glue pad & stamps to create your own greeting cards but I'm going to embed these into resin. So pretty!

DIY: Miniature Pastry Clothespin

Bought these mini clothespin a few months ago but never used them. I decided to make them cuter by painting and attaching miniature Re-ment pastries on them. The acrylic paints will require generous layers to fully show the color so it may take me a day or 2 to complete this. The pink tube of paint has glitter mixed into it while the purple tube has a really pretty shimmer. Both were purchased at Daiso for $1.50 each. The brown paint & brush were purchased from Michaels (always a great deal when you have their 40% or 50% off coupon)! The Re-ment pastries were from a series called Bread & Butter and was from Chamalyn ($4.25). I think the clothespins were about $1.50 for 48 pieces and were also from Daiso.
