Father's Day {{this year}} - BBQ gift basket, personalized cards & book, and BEER!!! His favorites!

This year we made a BBQ basket for Father's Day 


His tools are getting older (especially the brushes) so we got him an additional one and bowl set to add to the basket.



We hid the basket in the garage. Pic before they brought it in the house.

Like the card? STRING ART DAD design tutorial HERE

The boys made him a book with everything they love about him....so sweet!!!

A few six packs of some favs

Boys made breakfast (with some help)

Chocolate chip waffles with DAD whip cream

For the boys

It was a great relaxing day and ended with a family bike ride. PERFECT!!!

Thank you for stopping by!

BBQ cupcake TUTORIAL - Mini BBQ GRILL tops! SO SUPER CUTE!

I made these last year for Memorial Day and for a themed teacher luncheon a couple of years ago. ALWAYS a huge hit!!

BBQ GRILL CUPCAKES!!! 


Gummy bears, Parchment paper or wax paper, sparkle gel, candy melts, food color,
 toothpicks, and edible markers


Gummy bear cruelty. Cut the gummy bears apart into threes. Hubby thought I was having an anger issue and not sure why I was cutting the heads off gummy bears. Haha! 

Shish Kabobs!!!

I used the top to a large sprinkle container to trace my template. Perfect size!

Melted and mixed black candy melts and white candy melts. 

I used a #2 tip and placed parchment paper over my template and traced grill tops :) 

I did the same thing in THIS POST and it has a little more detail pictures.

Made a few extra incase they break when removing them.

Once done I placed them in the fridge to dry and harden faster. You can do room temp but they melt in your hands too fast. 

Made cheese

I made these kinda fast and now looking at the pic they look like more like poo patties then hamburgers....ummm....I'm glad I added the cheese :)

Colored my icing yellow and orange

alternated colors when filling the bag 




 I don't like dark colors or red since they stain kids teeth/mouth :/ I opted for Wilton Sparkle Gel for red. 
Great for cupcakes but doesn't dry well so I would not recommended it for cookies.


Placed my grill tops


Then all the BBQ "food" 
Mini hamburgers (some with cheese and some without,) kabobs, and steaks. 
All made from candy melts except the kabobs.

TA-DAAAA!!!
