The pan is only $36 and the end result looks like...

How cute are these baby shower invitations from Miss­ing Q Press?  I love the cir­cus theme with the bright red and turquoise color palette.  The design is adorable with the circus-inspired fonts and vin­tage ani­mal illus­tra­tions.

A  friend informed us recently that cupcakes in a jar are the hot thing right now. They’ve been seen on The Today Show and in O Magazine. Really, we said. We haven’t even seen...

Oliphant New York

There is a time/place/occasion for every piece she creates.  I particularly love the necklaces but check out her gorge earrings, bracelets and rings as well! ...
