Painting For The Home and Heart by Amy Keys
I found these awesome handpainted cupcake plates by Amy on Facebook and I fell completely in love with all of her work. She does tons of personalized items…perfect for gifts!
I found these adorable little cupcake friends on MagicBeanBuyer’s Flickr Photostream. MagicBeanBuyer’s got all kinds of painted polymer clay preciousness on her Etsy site, many of whom are just as cute as these little buttons and also have baked goods on their heads. These cupcake buddies run between $16 and $20.

I was looking through one of my most favorite catalogs, baby & child – Restoration Hardware, and came across this super cute cupcake art.
Then I saw this adorable felt cupcake mobile that happens to be sold out! :(
And this felt cupcake box set that also is sold out!
Musician and more recently artist, Pharrell Williams was recently on the cover of Modern Painters. Inside, the article discussed some of Pharrell’s latest works of art including a line of chairs. More importantly to all cupcake fans is the cupcake he created. The cupcake is part of a series which features items that Williams views as underrated essentials. The cupcake is made out of 18k white gold and 5,218 stones, including 32.61 ct. cognac diamonds, 15.39 ct. brown diamonds, and 44.5 ct. white diamond. The piece of art stands 2¼ inches high and is 3 inches in diameter. The best part is in a vernissage interview Williams is claims “the irony and the twist of it, the poetry of the project is that no matter how good that looks to people, for me, the taste of cupcakes is worth far more than diamonds could ever be.”
I think cupcakes are pretty great. If I didn’t, I wouldn’t be writing for All Things Cupcake, right? But it takes something special for me to bestow an “OMFGBBQ CUTECAKES!” award. CakeSpy has it…CakeSpy, in fact, takes the cutecake.
I first discovered CakeSpy a few years ago at I Heart Rummage, a local artist swapmeet that goes on every other month at Chop Suey (Capitol Hill, Seattle). I stood at the booth for at least five minutes paralyzed and making cute noises over freakin’ adorable drawings of wee little cupcakes living their little cupcake lives: checking the interwebs at a coffeeshop, falling in love, and running from zombies. It made my week. 
Turns out that CakeSpy (aka artist and writer Jessie Oleson) not only does prints of the wee lives of cupcakes, she also have a blog and plenty more merch. I mean really – what says awesome like a hip cupcakes and unicorns tee in the closet, a cupcakes and unicorn checkbook in your purse and teeny-beeny cupcake and unicorn magnets on the fridge?
