It’s Wednesday! And since I’ve been soooo crazy getting ready to get on a plane with Emily to go to Miami for Mom 2.0 Summit thanks to Lands’ End, I haven’t tried any new pins this week. OH WAIT! Yes, I did actually, but it was a GIANT FAIL. I’ll save that one for our opposite-PinFTW that we are sure to have one Wednesday! But for a winner, here’s one I did awhile back to celebrate Leap Day with my kids. Cute frog cupcakes! Get it? ‘Cause frogs LEAP! Here’s the original pin:
And here’s how mine turned out:
I know, I know, they’re not as cute as the original, but I hate coloring icing, so I used white icing and dipped the cupcake in green sprinkles. For the eyes I used white York Peppermint Patty Pieces (like Reese’s Pieces) and I used black gel icing for the eyeballs and mouth.
My children were duly impressed, and we had fun making them! They decorated their own.

Cute froggy cupcakes!! They make me want to go have a cupcake for bfast, not a smoothie. 🙂
I am not sure I did this properly so forgive me! But I tried. I had this super stinky towel that I used to dry my hair. i am on a spending freeze so I wanted to find a way to get rid of the stink with out having to break in a new towel. This really works! My towel has been rejuvinated! i am gonna try the same thing in my dishwasher because it is starting to get that funk to it!
Thanks for sharing Colleen! I used parentheses after your name to let readers know what the pin was about. that is a GOOD one, I have towels I need to de-stink!
Pin for the Wednesdays has really motivated me to actually work on the projects I’ve been pinning! I made a cute little circle pouch to hold my earbuds in my purse.
Cupcakes look good! 🙂
Thanks for the motivation! I hadn’t posted a Pinterest project yet this week, because… well… okay, I didn’t do a project this week!!! *GASP* lol BUT I did make this at another point in life recently, so I think it still deserves a Pinterest post on my blog and a link up on yours! 🙂
awesome Ashley! thanks for the link-up! now get pinning & crafting for next week! 🙂
Haha so true!! I have about 1500 pins to go! Yikes!
