Cupcakes :D

Last saturday me and my friend Marloes decided to bake some cupcakes.

The cupcakes are coconut-vanilla-cinnamon cupcakes and they tasted yummy en sweet.

These were decorated with white(-ish) and green marzipan and black pearls.

We coloured the green marzipan with Wilton food colouring.

The little figure on the middle of the plate is a snowman :D.

He looks kind of weird but it was fun making him.

And these were docorated with fondant glazing.

We put it in the microwave to melt and added some electric purple food colouring.

On top of that we put black pearls and some easter themed sprinkles (eggs, butterfly's, hearts and flowers).

You can't really see it, but the cupcake papers (I'm sure there's a different word for that I don't know) are red with white dots, really cute!!!

We had great fun making, decorating and eating them.

Perhaps we should do this more often ;).

Until next time,

How To Fold An Origami Frog

This is a tutorial on how to fold origami frogs!

You're probably thinking...why would I want/need to fold an origami frog!???

Well...for starters: they are awesome and cute and hop (if you fold them correctly), they are easy to make AND you can use them for your Halloween costume?

Halloween costume???

Yes, I will post a tutorial on how to make a Halloween costume with origami frogs later today (made especially for Serena Verbon).

What you need:

*a table to fold on

*paper to fold (any paper that's in a square, folding paper or special origami paper)

And here's how you do it:

1) You choose a piece of paper and lay it flat on the table.

2)You fold it in half.

3) You fold the paper open.

4) You turn the paper clock-wise.

5) Again, you fold the paper in half

6) You fold the paper open.

7) You turn the paper upside-down.

8) You turn the paper clock-wise so that one point is pointing down.

8) You make a diagonal fold.

9) You fold the paper open.

10) You turn the paper clock-wise.

11) You make another diagonal fold.

12) You fold the paper open.

13) You then have to fold 2 out of 4 sides in so that you get a double triangle.

14) Then fold the right side downward (in half) to form the base of the leg/back.

15) Do the same thing on the left side.

16) And fold the right leg half back.

17) Do the same thing on the left side.

Now you have legs :).

18) Turn the frog upside down (now it looks kinda like a kite with legs ;P ).

19) Now fold the right side upward (in half).

20) Do the same thing on the right side (it starts looking like a frog).

21) Now fold the right side half way down.

22) Do the same thing on the left side.

23) To make the frog able to jump, you have to fold the legs up about 1 cm.

24) Then fold it back half a centimeter.

25) Now your frog is ready to jump :).

Some froggies:

If you want to make the Halloween costume you are going to need a lot, so you better start folding ;).

Do you find this tutorial usefull?

Until next time,

Freya

An Old NOTD

I made this one a few months back, but I thought I'd share this one anyway.

These are the products I used

From left to right: Top Coat (Catrice), Smashing Orange Nail Polish (MAX), Base Coat (Catrice) and French Glam Nail Stickers by Essence.

I never tried Nail Stickers before, but I found out the ones by Essence are easy to use.

Once you put them where you want they stay put!

And this was the result

And a close-up

I really love these nail stickers!!!

You don't need to be a pro or have nail art experience.

All you need to do is paint your nails, place these stickers where you want them, and add a layer of top coat.

It really is THAT easy!

Have you ever used nail stickers, or if nor, would you use them?

Until next time,

Freya

Preview: Lush Matryoshka

I spotted this on I Heart Cosmetics , and fell in love with it instantly!

The outside of this Lush gift is supposed to be made of So White soap.

Inside there are two Russion doll shaped ballistics: So White and Cinders!

These are all wrapped together by a mini knot wrap (a sort of scarf that can be used instead of gift wrapping paper).

I wonder if both the green AND the red outside are both So White soap...I'm secretly wishing the red part to be Cinders Soap!

I don't usually buy Lush gifts, but for this one I'm willing to make an exception ;).

Will you buy this cutie, or will you pass on this one?

Until next time,

Freya

@ Liever Loeder

Will you please send me your adress again?

I've lost it and I really need it to send you the items from the give-away.

Until next time,

Freya
