The Bright Side!

Life is a journey filled with ups, downs, and in-betweens. I can't even count how many unexpected twists and turns I've encountered along the way. The phrase, "I didn't see that coming" has become apart of my daily dialogue! Some moments have been sweeter than words can describe while others left me with my heart in two. But that's life...the good, the bad, and the ugly.
                        
Life can be a good teacher if you're willing to learn. Lesson One: Get over it! Sometimes you have to let things go and by go I don't mean store them in a mental vault guarded by lock and key! You have to really deal with your issues no matter how difficult they may be. Then you have to move on. Lesson Two: Prepare yourself for the unexpected! This one doesn't need much explanation. Just keep in mind things will rarely go as planned...lol. Finally, Lesson Three: There is a bright side to everything! Even in the darkest situations, there is a light. Focusing your sight on the bright side is what enables you to see joy in the sorrow and sunshine through the rain. God bless!

Holiday | DIY Snowman and Reindeer Cupcakes - Sharron's Take


I LOVE snowman, reindeer and everything Winter!! LOL. I'm so happy I got a chance to make this tutorial. It's super easy and can be made with products you find at any store. The gumdrop earmuffs can easily be substituted for another candy, as well as the top hat on the marshmallow snowman. I've seen other people use chocolate bells. Here is the link to my YouTube video for more detailed instructions. Have fun and happy baking!!

DIY Sesame Street Cupcakes: Elmo, Cookie Monster, & Oscar the Grouch - S...



I've been working really hard lately on my cupcake / dessert video tutorials for my YouTube channel Sharron's Take. I recently posted one for DIY Thanksgiving Cupcakes and DIY Wedding Cupcakes. When I first started decorating cakes, I came across a ton of general tutorials like how to frost a cake, how to stack a cake and different ways to pipe on cupcakes. I didn't come across a lot of video tutorials that showed how to make specific designs. So I decided to focus on making some of my own for all the future cake decorators and dessert makers out there.




Materials needed:

Elmo Cupcake
     Mini Marshmallows ~ Eyes
     Black Frosting ~ Eyes and Mouth
     Red Frosting ~ Fur
     Orange ~ Nose
     Wilton Tips ~ 233 & 3

Tutorial | DIY Breast Cancer Awareness Cupcakes - Sharron's Take



I lost both of my grandmothers to breast cancer. As much as I don't want to think about it, breast cancer runs in my family and is never far from my mind. This video is dedicated to those who fought, fight, and their families that love them.

My Laser Hair Removal Experience - Sharron's Take

Like so many other women out there, I have struggled with facial hair. It's not an easy topic for most of us to talk about. Honestly, it can be down right embarrassing for some of us to admit.

My issues started when I was fourteen and worsened with age. I have tried so many hair removal techniques and products. I have spent so much money on removing hair that was just going to grow back in a few days.




After much consideration, I finally decided to have laser hair removal. I am so glad that I did! My results have been great. At the wonderful age of 31, I am no longer embarrassed by unwanted hair. I am proud of my decision and can freely share my story. Hopefully it will hope someone else out there!

My Two Year YouTube Anniversary!! | GIVEAWAY - Sharron's Take

Yay!! It's my two year anniversary on Youtube. Wow, I can't believe it's already been two years. I started this channel at the urging of my big sister Shaun. After some talking to, I decided that this was a good idea. I didn't quite know what I wanted to do with my channel and I'm still learning. I thought vlogging was weird and frankly who cared about the daily ins and outs of my life?? LOL

"Who puts their personal business on Youtube anyway??"




Now that it's been two years, I finally see some of the purpose God has for my channel and for me. I've grown so much and I'm glad I decided to step out on faith and do this. I've learned so much about myself and from others. I'm glad I have an avenue to let loose creatively. I love to do so many things and this has been the perfect forum to express myself. I'm so blessed that I can finally show my love for Christ, journalism, baking, fashion, and any other randomness that comes across my mind.




Thank you everyone that has read my blogs, watched my vlogs, and continued to support me.

You will never know how much I appreciate you. I can only pray that my life continue to bless others as much as God has blessed me. Love you all and as always be blessed!! ]

Vlog | Picnic Time!! - Sharron's Take

                             

Fall Time Fun

It's that time of year again....FALL!!!!!! This has and will always be my favorite season. I love the chill that comes in the air. It's not too hot, not too cold and I can finally wear my boots!!!
Yes...lol. Another reason I love this time of year is because it means Thanksgiving is right around the corner. For the past three years I have tried to focus my mind on being grateful, regardless of the circumstance. This year is no different. I have suffered much lose but I still have so much more to appreciate
.


If you're new to my blog, every year we make a gratitude pumpkin. "I'm Thankful For" is written boldly on the front and every day of November, each member of the family writes down something they are grateful for. It's a great visual reminder. It really does put your mind on the right track for having a grateful heart. 



This year our family started early. We went to the store and both boys picked out there
 pumpkin. Then we went home and decorated our tables. I know it's only the first of
October, but I wanted to get an early start this year. Here are a few pictures from our outing.
