Hi Loves! I will be taking a bit of a break from rottencupcakes as my husband & me (& our two cats) make our way across the country to relocate from Chicago to lovely, sunny Southern California. Tonal Tuesday will continue to be posted weekly but all other posting will be on hold until May 1st. Then I shall return joyful, triumphant and bursting with new content for you.

Loads of love! Wish us luck!

Congratulations to the winner of the Daisy Cutter beret:
Ashley, who said:

“I’d love some rich reds . . . fall colors, sunset colors. I think a coffee cup in those colors, or a really pretty dish – something for a desk or table to hold stuff – toys, keys, smell-good, candy. Same colors, anything knitted. one day i will actually list my own knitted items on my etsy shop. still building”

Random.org picked her out. ♥ Congratulations, Ashley! I’ll be packing up your prize & shipping it out tomorrow.
Thank you all for your wonderful suggestions! I will work on introducing some of these items into the shop this season. Keep your eyes peeled!
