Here is one more thing I can check off the list of “Things I’ve Never Seen Before”: Cupcake Ear Plugs. These particular pieces are Collector’s Edition Cupcakes from Omerica Organic, and all 100 pairs have already sold out (sorry, cupcake hipsters). [Thanks to The Dainty Squid and her fantastic Photostream for the original pic.]
This week’s sweet giveaway comes to you from Etsy crafter Zinicolas. She specializes in high-quality handcrafted clay and fine silver jewelry. These creations are all wearable works of art and each is uniquely designed. I own one of these little pieces of heaven:
I think I was most impressed with the size of this piece and it’s detail. Many pendants I have seen are very small and lack realistic characteristics. Her cake slice is larger than most and looks so much like a real (miniature) cake slice! I enjoy the bigger size because I get more comments and compliments from cake admirers!
This week you, our loyal cupcake readers, will get the chance to win one item from Zinicholas. Here’s the best part: the winner will get to choose what item they want to receive! Just go to Zinicholas and look at her sweet polymer clay items. Then come back to ATC and click on the comment area below. Please tell us what item you would pick to win AND what item you think she should create next. Contest ends this Sunday so enter now!
Special thanks to Zinicholas for sponsoring this superb giveaway!
For our last giveaway of 2009, I wanted to make it a really special one. I met this wonderful Etsy artisan a few months back and now sassybellewares is one of my favorites. I believe she truly gets us cupcake crazy people here on ATC. Check out this cute jewelry from her shop.
I own one of Sassybellewares pendants and love that not only can you wear it as a necklace, but you can take it off the chain and use it as a pin. So clever! This week sassybellewares is giving away one of her “I Speak Cupcake” items. The winner will get to pick one of the items below and choose if they want it as a bracelet or necklace/pin.
To enter this giveaway, go to Sassy’s two Etsy shops and come back to tell us what other item(s) was your favorite in the comment area below.
Contest ends Sunday December 27th so enter today!
Well, we here on the U.S. East coast are in the midst of a large snow storm today that will allow us to have our first white Christmas in many, many years. Have you noticed it’s also snowing here at ATC? In honor of this snowy weather, I went to Etsy and looked up “snow cupcakes” and found some nice little treasures to share with all of you. To all who are enjoying the white stuff out your window, stay warm and eat a cupcake!
