Sunny Days, lifting those clouds away...

We were recently buying paint when my 2.5 year old son saw that there is a Sesame Street Paint Colour Book. Yep, it's true. They are selling paint to 2 year olds now. He insisted on bringing it home and then he had me read it to him. Seriously. There were little descriptions of each of the characters so at least there was something to work with.

This opened the door for me to ask him who his favourite Sesame Street Character was and he replied by finding Elmo and pointing him out (he doesn't talk a lot). Then we discovered that our middle child who is 5.5 also likes Elmo best. Our oldest? She loves Abby Cadabby and Zoe ('cause they're girls!) I have been a long time Elmo fan myself...I'm not so sure about the whole Elmo's World thing but I think he's pretty cute.

So when I was asked to do a couple of Elmo cakes for a friend, I was all over that!

Who doesn't love Elmo?

Enjoy!

So Glad We Made It!

I am so pleased to tell you that the major bits of our renovation are complete! It's been a long road getting from there to here...

There is so much to see...I made the blinds myself with fabric purchased at Tonic Living, all the goodies were baked in my new kitchen! There were Cinnamon Roll Cupcakes, Lemon Cupcakes, Mocha Cupcakes, Mini Oreo Cheesecakes (I think these were the favourite!), Oatmeal Nutmeg Scones, Buttertart Muffins and Almond Poppyseed Muffins. Yum!

This is me with a representative with Community Care...we filled 2 baskets with donated toys! Fantastic! I will drop those off later this week for them to share with children in need in our area.We had more than 50 people join us for the event...we talked, enjoyed treats and did crafts! Everyone loved the Shrink Art! That is Grama CB sitting at the table with all of the kids. We couldn't have done it without her!

Our special guests, The Acts of Sweetness Team! These ladies were so lovely, we are so happy they could join us for such a sweet occasion!

Little Miss CB took this photo...

Peace out ladies!

Enjoy!

Grand Re-Opening!

Well, you saw what the room looked like before...

This was our inspiration (a gift from one of my closest friends)...

And then we ripped out the walls...
And drywalled...

Not to mention the structural work in the basement, the endless amounts of paint we used (I wonder how many litres we used!), the sewing the installation of cupboards (that we put together first!)

Since the beginning of March our home has been turned upside down. We are very pleased to welcome you into the brand new Creative Bug HQ!

Please stop by on May 14th, 2-4pm for a treat, a craft, to visit with Redpath's Acts of Sweetness Team and to see this newly appointed, beautiful space!

Enjoy!
