~Bats and Cats~
Happy Halloween!!
It's going to be a busy Halloween Weekend in Blogland.
This Witch with the the broom is a Tea Pot and the broom is the spout.~I think this witch tea pot is sooo... cute. Don't you?
Halloween cupcakes take center stage with a little help from Mr. and Mrs. Cat. The Cats are back from
their trip and decided to have a Halloween party. The Bats and Moons are dressing up the Devils Food cupcakes in style for the festive evening.
I cut out the Moon and Bats from White fondant. Trying to color white fondant black for the bats was a real challenge . I mixed Violet and Red with a little Brown. When I work with fondant again and need the color Black, I will buy BLACK fondant or black food coloring.
Another lesson learned the hard way!
This Halloween Tablescape is a very Thrifty one.
The cupcake aprons and picks I found on sale at the craft store. I used Royal Icing and a 1M tip to frost the Halloween cupcakes.
The 'Mums' in the garden are still blooming. I picked this bucket today. I have only two plants and they are still producing more blooms.
