Holiday Greetings! This is one of my FAVORITE times of year in which I get to create sugary Christmas whimsies and holiday goodies. It's the time of year we pull out the ornaments, trim the tree in sparkling festive lights, and display our cherished Christmas decorations.
Unfortunately, this big Elf was so busy decorating my home for Christmas that I wasn't able to create as much as I had hoped for. Nonetheless, I do have some fun and festive goodies now available in my Etsy Shoppe.
***SPECIAL NOTE!!!! I hate to go a bit sour with this post, but it has been brought to my attention that someone is copying my work and selling it on Etsy. I work so hard to come up with creative and imaginative original ideas and it is so disheartening to know that someone else is out there creating my pieces identically and trying to make a profit off of my ideas. All original artwork are protected under copyright. I ask that you PLEASE respect that. ****
This first darling whimsy piece is a Christmas Snowglobe Ornament called "Sugar & Spice" and is full of the yummiest bits and bops!
The inside globe is full of CUTENESS!
Small whimsical treasures and bright bling!
Bunnies,Gnomes, & Sugary gumballs
An adorable little Christmas Fairy adornes the ornament.
You can display it on your Christmas tree, or hang it on a door for your children to shake and "ooh & aah" at all the goodies inside.
I received such wonderful feedback on my Pink Santa ornaments so I made a few more Santa's that say "Merry Pinkmas".
He's so jolly and cute with his rosey cheeks and red ruby lips!
There are several of these fella's available now.
This next piece is a gumball assemblage that is titled "Angel Sweets". It is a working functional vintage gumball machine that is adorned with one of my signature bunnies dressed as an angel.
When your children are acting and behaving like little angels you can reward them with a "Angel Sweets" treat.
I've adorned the top of her head with vintage Coro earrings in the most beautiful pale shade of lavender. Little tiny flowers with crystals in each one, and petals that looks more like snowflakes to me.
This Christmas I've been able to create one BIG gumball assemblage. I adore and love everything about this happy piece. It's titled "North Pole Winterland". It has all your friends you would see at the North Pole.
This cute vintage snowman is in perfect condition and lights up nice and bright. All you have to do is plug him in. (I played around with the photo and added a frosty halo around him.)
Pink Santa, reindeers, and wee little elf all are nestled inside.
The bells are vintage Wilson cake decorating bells that were already "sugared", but I opted to add a wee bit more for extra sparkle.
The mouth of the gumball machine I turned it into a snowy Candy Cane Sleigh Ride. Mr. Elf is having a ball!
This darling piece is full of details and guaranteed to bring happy joyous smiles!
Thank you so much for stopping by and taking a peek at my Christmas creations. I love what I do more than ANYTHING, and I try my best to reflect that in my work. I am extremely appreciative of the loyal support and kind compliments that you ALL so lovingly bless me with. Thank you!!!!!!!!
Now, hubby and I are bundling up, packing our suitcases and headed to NYC for a fun getaway weekend! There is no place more spectacular than Christmas in NYC!
Happy Holidays sweet friends!!!!

You’re going to Tinsel Trading? Lucky! I still havent been there. I think you should ditch your hubby on Sunday and come to Jersey. You can go antiquing with me and Lisa Kettell. Make sure you see the tree! It’s gorgeous!
You have such a fun and colorful blog! Full of things to see. It is indeed Sweet Eye Candy Creations. I didn’t see your email displayed, but wanted to let you know that on Fridays I like to come up with some blogs I’ve found while strolling “The Land Of Blog” and that I want my readers to see. This week your blog is one of those. Hope you have a delightful weekend! If you’d like to see, visit: http://cozylittlehouse.com

Hi LeAnn, I would LOVE to make you a Santa. I feel bad for those that missed out, so I will plan on making a few more in the next week. I’ll save one for ya! 🙂 XO,Jenn
Jenn, there seriously is NO WAY anyone could duplicate your creations.. you are the queen of beautiful details and their creations couldn’t be as wonderful. I was sorry I missed happy pinkmas santa too!! Have fun in NYC! Jennifer
Hi Jenn – I just went to your ETSY shop and saw that nothing is left! Wow!!! I would have loved to have had the snowman gum machine – that is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen!! You are SO talented and creative and I love seeing what you come up with – so sad that someone else even thought they could come close to what you do! Anyway, have a great time in NYC and a Merry Christmas! xo, Nan
I missed a Santa! Please let me know when they are ready once again! I LOVE Tinsel Trading and visit quite often. I am sorry I didn’t know in advance that you were coming here, would love to meet you! Adore your blog & creations! Have a safe triep and pack warm, it is freezing here in NY!
oh such gorgeous girly loveliness. Absolutely stunning. what a rotten shame some bad apple is copying you and making money from your ideas. Shame on them. No imagination of their own I suppose.
Enjoy your break.
Sadie
your gumball creations are just the most darling things ever!
xoxo, Tiffany

Hi

I can’t find your shop/web site help
Marie
Hi Jenn,
Everything it so fun and creative, of course I love the bunny piece the best : ) I haven’t had much time for blogs lately while dealing with a family crisis, but I wanted to peak in tonight for a few smiles. I hope you had a beautiful weekend in New York.
Hugs,
Kathy
Oh wow what wonderful creations – so beautiful.
Sorry to hear that someone is out there is copying your work and selling it on Etsy.
Alison
Jenn, Your blog is just as sweet as you are! So glad we met and got a chance to dine & chat! Continued success! Jen’s Mom Ginny
Sweet Jenn~ you are a true talent I adore your gum ball machines! Hopefully I can get one someday before they sell out on me 🙂 I know how you feel about someone copying your art I had someone do that this year in my eBay auctions, just dreadful it’s so frustrating! It hurts a little because each artwork has a little piece of us in it. Hope you had a fabulous time in New York! I’m having a pink Christmas give away if you want to take a peek & enter stop by!
hugs~ jen
Your work is beautiful! You must put many hours into each piece and I commend you on that. The bunny is adorable, we had a living bunny in our house for 5 years and they are precious. I love anything with bunnies and LOVE everything pink! Have a fun trip. Our youngest son used to work in Time Square.
Hi Alison! Lovely for you to stop by! Thank you!!! 🙂 XO,Jenn
Ginny,
It was such a pleasure to meet you and Jen! What a fun sweet surprise having the opportunity to dine and have fun quality ladies time! Your pink and aqua hat is the best! hee! hee! Merry Christmas! XO,Jenn
your things are so lovely, I love the pastel look and am sorry you are being copied, grrrr. I recently did a blog and am selling some items on etsy I hesitated cause most of my business is wholesale to stores, I worried about people just looking to copy or get ideas. All we can do is just keep going along with our original ideas. I love your stuff!!!
Jenn….see what I get for working out before I read my favorite blogs?? I missed out on your wonderful sale. I hope you have a blast in New York. I am soo jealous.
xxoo Valarie
All of your work is to DIE for Jenn! Just gorgeous! You are a true original! *wink*
xoxo
Christine
I seriously adore adore adore your work!!!! Those gumball creations are the sweetest in the universe. Thanks for sharing with us all! CHEERS and Happy Christmas to you and your family.
