Some days I should just not sit down with pinterest. Last night, waiting for my favorite 11 o'clock political comedy shows to come on, ipad in lap, I did a little search for "bumble bee"... OMG!!! They are too flipping cute! Here are some of my favorites!!

Crafts by Amanda did a really cute tutorial on making bumbles from rocks... yeah, rocks!! awesome!

I'm kind of grumpy that I can't figure out where this ring is from because I totally would wear it. If it's etsy and someone knows who makes it, please comment and let me know! --- UPDATE! someone found the etsy URL for these!

Since I can't find the ring maker, I could settle for bumblesque on my finger nails....

And then I just might need this hair accessory by Tanya Staab. Fortunately there is a tutorial for it.

My birthday is coming up this spring (April 21st) and I keep asking Lily, my youngest, to bake me a cake for it.... I keep giving her ideas but she seems reluctant.... *snickering*

Cake Central has this cutie cupcake...

This one by For the Love of Sugar seems easy enough, right?

The Cupcake Blog had this great beehive cupcake idea...

Finally giving up, I told her she could just bake me some cupcakes in these adorable wrappers from Sweet Shop Lulu...

Ok. OK. Maybe I should just stick to what I love to do then.... work....

and finally, if all else fails, I vow to ....

Such fun! Where - perchance - can someone purchase the cupcake wrappers? LOVE them!

Or - the Bee Inspired plaque, shown last?

unfortunately those items were pinned from tumblr and I couldn't find out where they originated, or I would have left links =(

That's okay... I'll do some searching!

www.shopsweetlulu.com (for the cupcake wrappers)

Could you find them on there? When I was originally looking, I found a link there, but then couldn't find them n on the site so thought it was wrong....

Cute! I've been resisting visiting pinterest for this very reason. I know it would mean a couple more hours on the 'puter everyday!

I love the fingernails, I think they get my fave stamp.

TFS!

Thanks Tami!

lol... yes, it can be addictive... sometimes though, I'm completely bored. I think it depends on if I'm looking for something in particular and can figure out what keyword I want.
