Have a Holly Jolly Christmas!

Merry Christmas!
I know I've been very bad at blogging lately, but I haven't not really had anything to blog about. But in honour of Christmas in only a couple of days I thought I'd share these - my family is having our annual "Curson Christmas Soiree" tomorrow and mum's put me in charge of making the sweets. I think I got a bit carried away but there was just so much I wanted to try!

Santa hat brownies:
 

Snowman cake pops:

Christmas pudding cake pops:

Christmas tree cake pops:

Peppermint striped cupcakes:


I have also done my nails all christmassy :)

Also, apologies for the overuse of Instagram! I was really not a fan of it before I got an iphone but I just can't resist using it!

Winter is Here...

It's already pretty freezing, but I know it's only going to get colder yet. I love being able to wrap up in loads of layers and big jumpers and scarves though so I'm looking forward to it (although mainly I'm just looking forward to snow!)

So in honour the approaching months of freezing temperatures and dark nights, I've been uploading some photos from last winter to my Flickr. Head on over there to view the full set, and to find out which camera each shot is from.

The ice sculpture ones were taken at last year's London Ice Sculpting Festival, which I went to on my birthday. Some of them were truly amazing.

Happy Halloween!

You may have seen the previous cake pops I made, well in honour of Halloween I made some more. I was hoping to make pumpkins, black cats and ghosts but I couldn't get all the ingredients I needed to I just made the ghosts.

The cake balls are coated in a layer of white candy melts with a circle of ready rolled icing on top. So cute!


I also did some Halloween inspired nail art:

Christmas is Coming....

I've finally gotten round to uploading some more items to my Folksy online store, Wishcatcher Crafts.

I've been making a start on some Christmas decorations, and here's what I've come up with so far. I've got loads of ideas for other things I want to make, it's just finding the time to do it! I don't know if you saw the cake pops I made for a friend's birthday but I'm going to try and make some little ghost ones tomorrow night which I'm very excited about! Fingers crossed they work ok :)
