Bun in the Oven…

August 2, 2010 by Carrie Sellman

Over the years, my oven has gotten a work out.  During the years that I owned my cake business, there was always something sweet baking.  Whether testing new recipes or baking up orders, my oven was always in use.  I still love to bake and cook, but these days my oven has been perfecting something else.  Something much sweeter than ever before.

I thought it was about time to share our exciting news…  my husband and I are expecting our first child!  A sweet little girl due in September.  Obviously we are way excited and counting down the days until our little one arrives.  So in honor of this new little treat I’ve been baking for 8 months now, today we’re featuring an adorable ‘Bun in the Oven’ DIY.  Created by Julie at Stamped in His Image, this is such a cute little gift that would be perfect as a baby shower favor or a small gift for the mom-to-be. Inside you’ll find a ‘bun’ made of baby washcloths.

Over the next few months, I hope to continue to have daily inspiration posted for you here on Half Baked.  I am looking for a few guest bloggers to help me through the first several weeks post-baby.  So if you’re interested, please email me! And be sure to check back tomorrow for a peak at the baby shower my family hosted to welcome Baby Sellman.
