I went to the Spotlight launch event for National Craft Month for March on Thursday. During the month of March, Spotlight stores are hosting craft events every weekend for National Craft Month. Be sure to check out your local Spotlight store.
One stand that caught not only my attention but my girls, was the Roberts Confectionery table. I mean it had cupcakes on it, what isn't to love when it comes to cupcakes? My girls got to decorate a cupcake each, something I don't think they've ever done before. Not in this fun form anyway.
Look at the concentration on those faces. This I know for sure was the first time they'd put icing on and used anything like this. Heidi with the pink icing, got the hang of it after a while. Chloe with the blue icing, was having troubles figuring out you have to squeeze/twist from the top, but she got there.
Heidi added some handmade flowers and leaves she made and topped it with sprinkles and called it done. Below Chloe did the same. Both turned out amazing and I let the girls eat them in the car on the way home, even known usually I don't allow them to eat in the car. Pretty sure they'd finished before I left the city. I did get a little try of Heidi's, it was SO good.
Since coming home, Heidi has gotten out the clay we have and made a bunch of flowers that she learned to make at the Spotlight Launch. I can see MANY more being made.
Be sure to check out Spotlight and the events they have on each weekend during March for National Craft Month.
