Waxing Lyrical...

♥ Ceri makes...  has rediscovered the joys of candle making!  I spent many a rainy Sunday afternoon creating candles with my Get Set kit when I was little...  Newly inspired by my Kirstie's Homemade Home book I set about creating some rose scented candles.  Instead of following Kirstie's lead with a tea cup I used some vintage glasses from a previous charity shop haul.


With a little bit of patience and an afternoon to spare you can easily make these at home too.  All you need is an old saucepan and a basic candle kit (...I got mine very cheaply on ebay).  The results make gorgeous gifts that both look and smell delightful!

Christmas Cupcakes...

♥ Ceri makes...  just thought I would share a few snaps of the Christmas cupcakes I made for my team at work instead of giving out Christmas cards.  Some cake boxes and a bit of red ribbon add a gifting touch to these simple vanilla cupcakes using my trusty Hummingbird Bakery recipe...

I ♥ macaroons...

♥ Ceri makes... was so pleased with the birthday macaroons I decided to whip up another batch as Easter gifts. They look gorgeous in a clear gift bag tied with a bit of simple ribbon...
