Not Cupcakes

I can't do icing shouldn't do eating, I'll have to be content with looking


and drooling and make dyed woolly brooches instead.

My Mum found a lovely cream woollen blanket at a jumble sale and gave it to me for my now departed dog, Daisy, (yes!) to sleep on.
I saw its potential and before you could say 'English Pointer' I had it chopped up and immersed in dye. It came out in these lovely Dolly Mixture/iced cupcake colours.
Good enough to eat.
And calorie free.

Ooh these are much more scrummy! And I love the calorie-free idea too. I only wish everything nice was 'diet'.

Well..... you have made my day, not only did I laugh out loud but you have made something good enough to eat and without the calories and colourings!

These are gorgeous, would look great on ATCs or postcards, colours are great! (we could do a swap)

So sorry for your loss of Daisy. My website is named for my late dog, Jaspy's, nickname.

I am loving all of the photos on your blog. Thanks so much for sharing them with everyone! Marilyn
