Cuppy Cake

Its' been a while since I've blogged. The last 6 months has been pretty rough. Due to the high cost of supplies I haven't been able re-open my Etsy shop as planned. Hopefully this new year will bring new beginnings for us. I did want to share some CUTE cupcake theme products I found on Etsy while browsing. =) My love for them is still as strong as ever.. lol

These are sooo adorable!

Oh, Baby

Ok, so I have already posted about this wonderful Etsy seller before, but I just HAD to post about her again after receiving yet another wonderful sheet of labels I had purchased! I contacted Autumn Leah over at Autumn Leah Designs a few weeks ago on creating a custom sheet of baby shower theme labels to use on custom baby food jar candles I was making for my BFF to use on the tables for decor at her baby shower. They were such a HUGE hit! Everyone just adored the little candles! YAY!! I also made other candles for the shower to give away for the game prizes. Autumn Leah is simply the most fantastic Etsy seller I have come across so far! She makes such lovely designs and has top-notch Customer service!! 

Here is one of the baby food jar candles I made using her labels

Too cute!!! You can purchase your own set of custom labels here:

Keep in mind she is due any day now, 

but she will open her shop back up as soon as everything returns to normal. =)

Next photo is the custom candles I made for the game prizes

Left to right: "Baby Cakes" Cupcake Candle, "Neapolitan" 16oz Mason Jar Candle,

4 Pack "Black Raspberry Vanilla" Frosted Votive Candles, 

Cinnamon Bun "Bun in the Oven" Loaf Candle

I even used one of the labels on a baby blue tag and used a

safety pin to attach it to the bow on the loaf candle. They were such a big hit! 

And don't worry, I was sure to bring a stack of biz cards with me to set on the table hehe..!

New look!

I'm super excited this morning to let all my sweet friends know that The Clack House is going through a major makeover! When I first started about 4 years ago everything I done was geared toward the Primitive style of things. Needless did I know that I had pretty much already "branded" my shop and items. Don't get me wrong I still love prim and will be incorporating both in my Etsy shop..hehe But the little girl inside of me that is still in love with bows, ribbons, polkadots, tutus and ANYTHING pink woke up about 2 weeks ago and said "hey, I'm still in here!" So, it's been a VERY long couple of weeks. LOL. I've redesigned my packaging labels, ordered tons of pink and polka-dotted ribbon, changed our Myspace page, Twitter and now our blog! I just loved how it turned out! I grabbed this template over at Delicious Design Studio (after staying up til midnight) switching out templates from various sites. I found this site too that I think you may want to check out ~ Template Mama. She has made a great list with wonderful blog designers. I adjusted the header that came with this template on Picnik.com! Easy peasy..I really like the clean lines of this one. I'm still a little nervous about what my loyal customers will think, after all..it is all about your customers! But after posting my concerns of the "big change" in the Etsy forums, they made me feel a lot better! Anyway, sorry for rambling on..I'm just so excited!
