Natalie and Nicole...A birthday at the beach.

I will admit from the very start that this precious cake had very little to do with me. My friend, Wendy, was the mastermind behind this masterpiece!

It all started with beach chairs. She made those from popsicle sticks the morning before the real cake making magic began. When the evening came, I visited and together we started making the pieces for the magic.

We worked on shells for the first couple of hours and then moved on to the other decorations. While Wen worked on the two towels (hand painting them...too cute!) and red sunglasses, I started working on a couple pair of flip-flops, the umbrella top, beach ball, surfboard, and let us not forget the log! : ) After many laughs and a rather large mess...I headed home and left the rest of the cake to her!

Wendy hand painted some grass, made some fencing, rolled some rope to go around the bottom of the tiers, crumbled cookies for sand, and just basically made one of the cutest darn cakes I have ever seen! Don't you agree?
