Stayhomecupcake is giving away a Cupcake Play Food or Pin Cushion with Cupcake Pins to one lucky winner! It’s her birthday today (it really is!) and she is celebrating by giving a present to one of you.

What the winner will receive…

1- Cupcake Play Food or Pin Cushion with Cupcake Pins

This yummy little pink and brown crocheted cupcake will hold all your pins but may make you hungry at the same time! It is made with acrylic yarn and measures 3″ high and 3 1/2″ wide. It comes with 6 (size 24-1/2) nickel-plated steel long pearlized pins (the sprinkles) and 2 polymer clay cupcake pins. It is filled with fiberfill. The pink icing is actually a little lighter than the photos show.

This can also be used as a toy cupcake. If you would like this as a play cupcake for your little one, I’d be happy to send it without the pins.

To enter this giveaway please visit Stayhomecupcake and then come back to ATC and leave a comment to this post telling us about what your favorite item that you saw on her site was.

This giveaway is open to residents of USA and Canada. A winner will be chosen via random.org on Tuesday June 9th.

I would like to thank Stayhomecupcake for creating and donating the gorgeous prize for this giveaway…and Happy Birthday!!! :)

Thanks to ATC Reader Kerry for sharing this tasty piece of information (pun intended):

For the little baker! Comes with plastic bowl, spatula, spoon, eggs, frosting container, cake mix boxes and of course – cupcakes with cupcake pan! They all come in an adorable cupcake container (which my sweet granddaughter will use as a purse)!

I saw an etsy shop a few months ago that made custom cardtable playhouses, so I requested a custom cupcakery. Here is the cupcakery that I am getting for my daughters…

The CupCakery Card Table Playhouse, Custom Order, Personalized, 40 removable and replaceable pieces $115.00

Yummy! Please welcome this special edition Cupcakery Playhouse to our Playhouse Neighborhood!

This listing is for a playhouse that fits over your own card table. I will make it to fit the measurments of your card table exactly. It can also be customized to fit any size table. (There is an extra charge for tables over 38″. The extra charge is determined by the size of your table. Please send me a conversation for details) The felt it is made with is very eco-friendly, manufactured from post consumer plastic bottles.

THIS PLAYHOUSE CAN BE REMOVED, FOLDED, AND STORED IN SMALL SPACES!!! I even include a matching fabric bag to store it in.

Every neighborhood needs a bakery, but the bakery in our Playhouse Neighborhood is extra special, and makes the most delicious cupcakes around! The cookies are the sweetest, the cake is the yummiest, and the chocolate covered strawberries are divine!

This playhouse is extra, extra special because it comes with FORTY removable/replaceable pieces! All of the sweets can be moved around, and the decorations on the cake can be changed, too! There are even three cupcakes that can be “decorated”! You can even remove the teapot and teacups and pour your guests a cup of tea! And, as always, there are 4 special letters to put in the mailbox, and a cute little watering can for watering the flowers in the window box. The window has a sparkly striped awning, and the tables have sparkly “marble” tops. The fancy chalkboard lists the daily specials under the name of your Cupcakery! This is not your average bakery!

This playhouse:

*Promotes imaginative play. Deliver the mail to the mailbox! Water the flowers in the windowbox! Pretend you are the baker, and fill the bakery case with all of the special goodies. Decorate the birthday/wedding cake! Peek through the windows and say hello to your friends! Play “house”! Use as an extra special space for quiet time, story time or even nap time. Excellent for “me myself time”.

*Aids number recognition with an address above the door. For no charge, the playhouse can be customized with your child’s own address to help his/her memorization skills. I also provide a welcome sign beside the door, which can say anything you choose. Some examples are “Welcome to Katie’s Cupcakery”, “Kathryn’s Bakery”, etc.

*Assists children in learning colors and shapes. Name the colors of the flowers in the window box! Name the shapes inside the flowers! What shape is on the watering can? What color is the watering can?

Some special notes about this playhouse:

The entire playhouse is sewn. NO glue is used. Side and
door seams are double stitched for durability. All of the removable pieces attach to the playhouse with velcro that has been sewn on. Guaranteed to last through years of magical play! These playhouses have been kid tested over the years by many of my nieces and nephews, and now by my own children, Billy, age 3 and Katie, age 2.

I do not recommend placing this item in the wash machine. It can be hand washed and laid flat to dry.

Want another color? Send me a conversation for color information.

I welcome custom orders and if you need a custom playhouse quickly for a gift or special occasion, please contact me and we can try to work something out for immediate shipping.

My studio is completely smoke and pet free.

I just wanted to share this post from the Muddy’s Bake Shop Blog…

In 2007, large toy manufacturers who outsource their production to China etc, sold toys with high lead content, unsafe parts, and made from dangerous chemicals. In response, Congress passed the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) , which among other things, mandates third-party testing and certification for all toys. This testing will be easy for large corporations who churn out thousands of each toy a year.

However, the way the current act is written, it puts most small toy-making businesses out of business. All the Etsy sellers, crafts fair artisans, etc in America would also have to pay the $300-$4,000 fee for third-party testing for EACH toy that they make. This makes the crafts-fair toymaker extinct while Mattel and Bratz prosper.

This sweetie features 27 different trinkets and measures 7”x8” (18x20cm). Each of our bags has an ever changing variety of unique trinkets and vintage charms. We are constantly searching for new treasures to add to our collection of over 300 varieties.

What is the I Spy Bag? Basically, the I Spy Bag is a fleece bean bag with a clear window. Instead of beans, we use non-toxic polypropylene pellets. Various trinkets are hidden among the pellets for children to “discover.” All items are printed on a fabric label securely sewn to the back. Please note that fabric pattern placement and variety of contents vary from bag to bag.

It is a great children’s toy that cannot be opened, and keeps most children quietly occupied during long waits (doctor, travel, grocery). Parents of special needs children find this game to be beneficial for coordination and tactile development. Adults also enjoy playing with this simple game.
