Sweet, Tasty & extremely CUTE!

To start off the year, I gave a go at making Cakepops... "CAKEPOPS?!" You question. The best way I can think to define them is that they are bitesize cake pieces coated in coloured candy; made to look like a lollipop. I must say, it was certainly fiddly baking to say the least however, the outcome was soooo worth it!!! =)

Here are ones I made for my Papa's birthday and to welcome the New Year
 

Soft sponge cake balls shelled in blue and also pink vanilla coating; sprinkled with hundreds & thousands for a final touch. I was more than happy to share these little treats with many of my friends and family and was really chuffed with the great comments I got.  

Presenting to you Senseful Creation's... 
POP-A-CAKE Candies 
Fantastic for parties, events or even when you just want something to indulge in... are NOW MADE TO ORDER.

BUT keep that sweet tooth fresh as more Pop-A-Cake yummies are baking in the kitchen.
Gotta run, toodles x

Senseful Creations introducing...

"Bloomful Delights"

... a new addition to my creative table. The concept of "Bloomful Delights" is basically a bouquet of wonderful gifts fit for new babies and young children. I started doing this when my best friend gave birth to my precious god-daughter almost a year ago and the thought of it incorporated many of the essentials a new mother would need. I absolutely fell in love with the idea and fully acknowledged the gratitude I received from giving it. So here I am today, writing up this post to share with you my work and what I have been up to this holiday period.

These unique bouquets are most adorable; perfect gifts for maternity leave, baby showers, new arrivals or even just a cute gesture. They are composed of a variety of useful treats for new mothers and their baby such as babygrows, bodysuits, bibs, scratch mits and much more, each handcrafted into little buds and blooms. I try my hardest to have them beautifully presented. Here are a few snapshots of my work & recent orders:

My Bloomful Delights can be tailored to your preferences. I work with the basic idea (like the ones pictured above) but I am more than happy to add and adjust anything you may wish to make your special gift for someone the way you'd like it. Whether you'd just like a dainty bouquet made up of just socks and mits or a baby bouquet accompanied with a hamper full of goodies -- it's your call. So, if you have friends who are expecting a baby or have just given birth, these baby bouquets would make beautiful and not forgetting practical gifts for them - feel free to get at me on cj.villa4@googlemail.com, I'd be glad to answer any questions or queries. You can also follow me on twitter at justhat_lilmiss

I am looking forward to showing you more of my stuff which I am currently working on at the moment. That's that for now, please stay close and I'll keep you posted.

Also, BIG love to those who have been supporting me, you know who you are. You're all too fabulous - thank you!

Christmas Fun

Hello one and all...


Unfortunately, I was unable to slip a post in before Christmas so "(Belated) Merry Christmas!" I do hope you all had a wonderful time celebrating this festive time of the year. Ate plenty and even more; drank enough that you sung to every Christmas song that played; watched all the movies that completed the day; opened your gifts like a big kid; and more importantly, enjoyed the company and presence of your loved ones & friends. I most certainly did =)  Here are just a couple of snaps of my Christmas weekend to share with you:


Hopefully you've all recovered nicely from your food comas and hangovers lol. Now it's time to prepare yourselves for the new and coming year. Resolutions anyone?!

Thanks for reading,

Kinda hooked

Bit of a diversion from my usual blog entries but I have an urge to write about my weird fascination with a little gift I so kindly received for my birthday.
This...

At first glance, I was immediately enchanted with the cute butterflies and floral design but then I spent ages fiddling around, trying to figure out what exactly it was. Ha! That took quite a while.

After much confusion, I found out that it was a bag hook =) I realised how VERY useful this piece of accessory is to me. Restaurants especially. Let me tell you, I have a real big issue of not putting my handbag on the floor - it stays far from it; either on my chair or on my lap. Now, I no longer have to sit uncomfortably LOL.
 

So pretty, no space invader, just very convenient. 
Great stuff.... happy me!

Ps. It makes a cute Christmas gift

Spectacular and 23!

Hey again, thanks for dropping by!

I am slightly backdated with my blog but as many of you would agree, there just seems to not be enough hours in the day to fit in the things we love doing. But I have an hour to spare and I've chosen to squeeze this entry in for you =)

25th October: The day before my sweet sister Kim's birthday (my boyfriend's sister to be precise), I'm an only child you see hehe. As a special treat for her 23rd birthday, I organised a family lunch at the Oxo Tower. Perked up on the eight floor surrounded by London's scenic views and alongside the Southbank of the River Thames seemed more than perfect for the occasion. The place is complete with a Restaurant, Brasserie and Bar but I went for the Brasserie for a more modern menu for us. There were a lot of exciting dishes to choose from which is always rather difficult. Nevertheless, each dish we were served with was delicious and beautifully presented.


As breathtaking as the views looked during the day, this place would look absolutely amazing at night and I hope one day to come back again to experience this. I most definitely had a lovely time; such lovely company too. I can only hope the birthday girl enjoyed herself.

We also surprised her with some gifts to complete the evening. Together with a huuuuuge bouquet of assorted flowers, we got her a personalised gold necklace with her music name "KYM". For those that don't know, she's a developing singer and songwriter with an EP in the making. 


And...

SENSEFUL CREATIONS // Music to my ears


My handmade pink and gold mix card based around her music career with headphones and a microphone.

While your here, do check out her MySpace page for a couple of demos of her tracks she has been working on.

I will be back sooner than you think with a blog about my very own birthday last week. Till then, keep safe and enjoy the rest of the week.
