We hope you were here yesterday to check out our A-line shift cookie collection made using Wrigley products. Here are some more fun ideas for using gum and candy for decorating sweets for fashion week, an awards show, or for a treat for someone who simply loves fashion. We used Wrigley gum, Life Savers®, and Skittles® to create a quilted purse, studded cuff, and bling-y ring. Since gum is malleable, it is easy to…

Since we’re all talking fashion today after last night’s Golden Globes Awards, we thought I’d share a fun project we did for Wrigley.
As you may have seen here and here, we’ve partnered with Wrigley to show candy fans, party stylists, and DIY’ers everywhere how Wrigley gum and candy can be used in many other fun or delicious ways. When we first received all of the Wrigley products, one of the first things that came to…

When this featured submission popped up in our inbox, it put a huge smile on my face. As a mother to two boys, I’m always referring to them as “My Little Men”. Although I’m not the biggest fan of the “moustache trend” that we saw in 2011, this table by Gretchen from Three Little Monkeys Studio was done just right! Ever since her son was born, Gretchen and her husband have always called their…

We love this time of year for many reasons. New York City, with all it’s spectacle, takes our breath away. Also, we get to entertain…a lot! So when we were asked by Sierra Mist to come up with recipe ideas, we did not hesitate to say yes. We had a lot of fun creating the drink recipes. Last week, we showed you two fun cocktail/mocktail recipes to whet your appetite. Today, we are back…

We were asked by Sierra Mist Natural to try some of their Cocktail/Mocktail recipes..so, of course, we turned it into a reason to entertain yesterday. For a rare change, we were in charge of the drinks, while our friends Rachel and Stephanie brought over the sweets. Since it was noon, we chose to serve a mocktail and the “Frost Bite Mocktail” was perfect for the chilly weather yesterday. The mocktail is made of just Sierra…

Hello everyone. Thanksgiving is just two days away and I thought I’d share a really fun recipe that we created with Wrigley. We’ve partnered with Wrigley to show candy fans, party stylists, and DIY’ers everywhere how Wrigley gum and candy can be used in many other fun or delicious ways. While Wrigley’s products are consumed by people around the world, there are many alternative uses including entertaining, decorating, and more. Using candy to add a…

Hello everyone. Even though I rarely put press on here, I thought you’d all be interested in this fun editorial piece we did for People Magazine. People asked us to come up with five versions of our basic sugar cookie recipe for their entertaining/holiday issue. Yes, it is a little early to think holiday, but you could bookmark it and come back to it after Thanksgiving. It’s amazing how much fun you can have by…

Zebra patterns are always very popular. Kathryn from Sugar Tumble sent us her tutorial on how to make orange and black zebra cupcakes for halloween. These are super cute and would be easy to do with your little monsters. By switching out the colors, these would be great for tailgate parties or Super Bowl parties. Even better, change the colors to match your child’s school’s colors and we bet they would be snatched up…

I think you all know by now that I have a slight obsession with cookbooks. My husband and I laugh sometimes that cookbooks are to me what shoes were to Carrie Bradshaw, and that our home is slowly but surely being invaded by cookbooks. My collection rivals the Barnes and Noble cookbook section. While I read many books online now, there is something about flipping through the pages of a cookbook that I’ll never…
