All from Jelly Belly:

You can also see examples of Jelly Bean Portraits (sourced from Jelly belly) on Crooked Brains, where I first discovered this art form.

Kate and William will be jellybellied next, I think.

Oh, don’t forget to view this year’s annual winner of the Washington Post’s Peep Show, displaying dioramas made with Easter marshmallow peeps. This year’s winner is the Chilean Peepaco Rescue.

Can’t Kick Start the Weekend with out a little classic 80’s I want Candy by Bow Wow Wow.

 

 

I'm an artist, wife and mother of two boys. I started my illustration business, The Occasional Palette over 35 years ago, when my oldest son was an infant. Once my children were in school, I began painting decorative, faux finishes and murals through my second business, Casart, now over 30 years old. My third business, Casart Coverings, is a springboard from my second.
