sigh...we own a cupcake bakery

I finally finished.
I completely copied this lady:
and created: Ivy's Cupcakery
Kristy told me about these, initially, and I was in love as soon as I saw it. I was originally going to make it for Max, but since Ivy's 1 year birthday is around the corner, I thought I'd try to finish it for her. I have 2 things left to do, cut the opening in the door... will take me 2 seconds. and trim a little off the bottom because it's a little long.
So, the address is her birthday: 4/1/09...
there's a mailbox that you can put mail into, but can also pass through to the inside.
here's her sign...
A cake to put candles on and cupcakes to decorate...I'll make more colors eventually, but for now, we're good with 2 flavors.
flowers to pick/plant in the slots and a watering can...
and the cupcakery goods...sprinkle donuts, chocolate-dipped strawberries, sugar cookies, chocolate chip cookies...
and a teapot and two cups for a tea party.
One day when I no longer have little kids, I'll have a room where this can just sit out permanently. For now, we can just fold it up and make it super exciting every time we bring it out! Now do you think I can wait for her birthday to give it to her?

LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!! I am going to attempt this but it might turn in to a complete and utter disaster. But you have inspired me. Therefore you have to be there for me on the other end of the phone for counseling. Deal? I also found this site I wanted to share with you because it made me think of you and all the cute stuff you make:
