St Kilda Beach Snapshots
We visited St Kilda Beach a while ago at ate a whole lot of cheese. Mostly we just took really cheesy photos. That lollypop was so good but way too much sugar for being practical!

Delicious Crunchy Honey Joy Recipe – Cute Food
Another yummy recipe from my childhood! Today we’re going to make Honey Joys ^_^
|
Out of all of the childhood foods I’ve been eating lately, these are definitely my favourite. They are sweet without being too sweet and they are crazy cheap to make.
 For this tutorial you will need:
You will need a bunch of these little cupcake wrappers. Mine are extra tiny because they are for holding chocolates.
 Preheat your oven to 150C.
To begin with, melt the butter, sugar and honey together in a pan
 Heat it until it start to bubble. Make sure you keep mixing so it doesn’t burn or stick to the bottom.
 Add in the corn flakes and mix thoroughly so they are totally coated.
 Spoon the mixture into the cupcake wrappers. I like to heap them so they are nice and tall.
 Bake them in the oven for around 5-10 minutes depending on your oven. You don’t want to burn them, just heat them enough so the liquid gets into the corn flakes.
 Now allow them to cool and then pop them in the fridge to store… or eat them all straight away >_>
Yum!
  Enjoy! They won’t be around for very long!
  I like to make them a little bit fancier by dusting them in some edible glitter. You could also add some sprinkles or cachous for more sparkles.
 Let me know if you give it a try, they are so yummy!

How To Make A Paper Hot Air Balloon Charm
Today I thought we would make a fun little decoration. I love hot air balloons and I thought a bunch of them would look really cute hanging from the ceiling ^_^
This is my end result!
|
For today’s tutorial you will need:
 Take a square of paper.
 Fold it in half into a triangle.
 And fold it again to form a smaller lopsided triangle like this:
 Repeat with at least 7 more pieces of paper. This looks best with a rainbow of colours!
 Now let’s construct the balloon part.
 Use a thumbtack to poke holes in each end of each triangle.
 Stack the triangles with the thicker side up onto a thumbtack.
 Bend them into a curve so it’s easier to make a ball later.
 Now fan them out.
 Cut a small piece of eraser and put it on the end of the tack so it holds everything in place, be careful not to prick yourself!
 Now stack the other ends onto another thumbtack at the bottom.
 It should look something like this, now stack another piece of eraser on too.
 Fan them out to close the gap you’ve been working in so it becomes a full ball.
 Easy! Now let’s just make the basket.
 So we have some way to hang it, take a piece of wire and wrap it around the top thumbtack. Twist it into a loop at the top.
 I made the basket out of an acorn cap. To hold it on I used two more pieces of wire wrapped around the bottom of the balloon and then around the cap. You could easily just glue them in place too.
  Cute and ready for take off!
  Hope you guys enjoyed the tutorials and let me know if you give it a try! |
