Hello, Hello

Its been a while since i blogged. So just thought i would write eveyone a quick wee note while Makenzie is alseep.
Its been busy at The Candy Stand, im currently working on our pamphlet and getting more business cards printed, taking photos, making tags etc etc

I have also been making up favor boxes to go upto a wedding venue for their display table!!! That has been heaps of fun, i cant wait to hear the feedback!! As well as working on a couple of lollipop trees for EZ Events Ltd - The girls over there really like their pink!!!

And the most exciting thing of all
OUR very own website is been set up!!! I will have a wee Candy Stand shop before you know it :D

Better get back to work while i have the chance. xx The Candy Stand

Bows, Bows, and more Bows

A friend popped over yesterday to offer me some helpful advice.

I was excited to find out she has previously been a flourist!! So we sat down for half an hour or so and she taught me how to tie a few bows. After she left i got myself comfy on the couch, and surround myself with ribbon. Ahhhh it was so much fun, but cleaning up the mess wasnt.
You really don't want to see my kitchen, there is over 30 bows in there, and with each other i get better and better - I'll be a pro before i know it.

Now i just have to go out and get some pink ribbon and i can start tying some nice fancy bows for a wee girls 10th birthday gift basket :+)
                                                 - Have i told you i love my job???

Love Sweet Love

It's nearly valentines.... I wonder what Mr S is going to get me?!?!
I'm not so with my own surprises, but i am good at making them for others.

Over the last few weeks i have been working on a few rose bouquets, valentines being a time of giving special treats for loved ones but the valentines gift that i am most excited about is for a very special 11 year anniversary!!! I cant wait to show you photos of this one!!!

Well back to work xoxo - Aalthough i shouldn't call this work, its way to much fun!

EXCITING!!

Morning everyone!!

Renees wedding is tomorrow, and we are busy finalising the last wee bits for the candy buffet. As well as heading over this afternoon to help with the set up of the venue!
Its all very exciting, although im sure for the bride and groom nerves are starting to kick in!!
It will all turn out perfectly though.

Ohh and guess what.....
I'm starting something new and exciting next week!
I dont want to ruin the suprise... but i can tell you i will be using chocolate moulds! :-D
