life.
sometimes it gives you a big ole fork in the the road that forces you to make a decision.
scary stuff i tell ya.
if you've visited me in the past,
you know i took a little blogger winter break.
2 weeks as a matter of fact of making other stuff a priority,
thus taking away from making fun stuff such as these:
nothing like a cup full of candy to make life sweet.
here's how to make some.
it's not shown but cut a little around the pattern to leave an overhang to the bottom of the cup.
ok i know that sounds totally confusing but hopefully you'll get it here:
i used the bottom of my donut mug to make the bigger circle. use whatever you have.
oh and i just used tacky glue.
ok put that hat aside and grab another cup.
i just free-handed the hole with sharpie
and cut the orange felt.
ok he said "kiss me" so that's our next step.
that was fun!
let's make another one.
i didn't have any rolos at the time but that can serve as the gold.
and because i couldn't decide on what pic to use for a title, here's another one.
and yet another one.
if that title decision was a fork in the road i would be all twisted around wouldn't i?
anyway, it's good to be back.
:)
