Two Years Of Cupcakes And A Giveaway

Last week was so hectic that I even missed my blog anniversary! Yes, on October 9th The Cupcake Diary turned 2 years old.
During this time many things happened and if this blog is still here it's because of you. I must thank you all my readers for the great feedback I receive everyday: your comments and your always kind words are the greatest thing I could ask for.

I don't know what will happen then, but I hope you'll continue to follow me during this new year of posting and hopefully you'll enjoy this adventure!

As I did on the first anniversary, this year too I set up a little giveaway for you. You can win two pieces from the new collection of Alice Pleasance. Both of them are from the new "flowery" collection, a pair of tiny blue lilies earrings and a charming pink fan hairpin.


The giveaway is open to anyone, all you have to do is leave a comment on this post before October 21st. Winner will be choose at random and promptly announced here...

...Good luck :-)

The New Alice Pleasance

You may have noticed my Etsy store has been on vacation mode since the beginning of August.

I thought for a while and felt I need to make some changes and most of all I wanted to add something new to my collection.

My long time readers may know I have a real passion for hats and hair accessories, expecially vintage (of course!) or with a retro feeling, so I worked in that direction and after sketching, designing and trying for a while I'm glad to introduce you the new Alice Pleasance's Fascinator Hats.




Made of natural straw, they measure 14 cm around and are available in a variety of colors. The decorations feature velvet leaves, ribbons, feathers and all sorts of fabric and paper flowers and fruits.
I didn't use any plastic flowers at all, cause I want to recreate the look of real vintage hair accessories from our lovely bygone eras.



The only plastic part is the comb sewn on the back of the fascinator. I chose plastic instead of metal, so you can be sure it's actually nickel free!


Apart from the new hats, the miniature cake rings are still available and there is also a new line of earrings and hairpins featuring lucite and plastic flower cabs.






As my brand is called Alice Pleasance I decided to transform my store in a sort of personal Wonderland, naming each section after a chapter of Lewis Carroll's books...

Hope you will join me soon for a crazy Unbirthday party :-)
