I’m so happy to introduce a fun new guest to you all today! It’s actually the husband and wife team behind Nothing But Country. This fabulous duo are not only photographers, but they also blog and create together! Mary Beth is one lucky lady who blogs what her hubby bakes as well as what she crafts! Sounds like the perfect relationship to me! I know you are going to love them as much as I do!………..take it away Mary Beth!
Hello, hello!! I am so excited to be blogging over here at TidyMom! I love TidyMom and all her wonderful ideas, I am honored to be here to share with you one of our fun cupcake ideas/crafts. I am Mary Beth, and you’d find me over at Nothing But Country. My husband and I often are creating together. But you will find that I do the blogging, and he does most of our cooking/baking posts. He loves to cook (I am one lucky gal!!) And I love to craft so we make a great team!
Today I am going to share with you an adorable Fishing themed cupcake. My husband loves to fish with my son. I wanted to make the perfect Father’s day cupcake for him. He deserves it. He’s an amazing dad.
I used a pack of fishy shaped fruit snacks, large sewing needle (cleaned), button & carpet thread and corn skewers. You could probably use any sewing thread you have on hand, I just wanted something thicker/sturdier. I will admit, I tried to use invisible thread so it looked more like fishing line and that = fail. The thread was so fine, it cut right through the fruit snack. Which is why I decided to go with a thicker thread.
Threaded the needed and put it thru where the mouth of the fish fruit snacks were. Tied it off carefully. If you tie it off too tightly it will cut thru the fruit snack too much.
Then I wrapped a bit of the string around the top of the skewer and tied it off there as well with a double knot. If you made your string too long, you can simply spin it around and tie it again to shorten it.
Frost your favorite daddy cupcake with pretty blue frosting.
One of my husbands favorite cupcakes is the blue berry cupcake. Pile on the frosting nice and high, looks like water. (Plus who doesn’t love extra frosting.. YUM!)
Add your fishing pole into the cupcake. I allowed the fishing pole to go in at an angle and go all the way down to the bottom of the cupcake so it was firmly in place.
They are sooooo adorable and lots of fun. I caught my husband after he removed the fishing pole pretend to fish in his cupcake. HAHA!! Boys will be boys! Thank you Cheryl again for inviting us to share with your readers our idea. I would love if they would visit us at Nothing But Country for more of our crafts and projects and maybe even try out a few of my husband’s recipes as well.

Those are adorable, the fishing rod is so creative!
This is such a cute idea!! Thank you. Hope you do not mind if I share this with my fans.
If only my husband liked cake/cupcakes. Maybe I’ll make them anyway, the kids and I can still enjoy. 😉
I love the cupcakes and the little stands! Is there a tutorial for the stands? I see a candleholder but what kind of paint and what is the platter made with? These cupcakes are perfect for having my kids help make on Father’s Day, so we will be making them! Thank You!
Bridget- The stands I actually posted on my blog a week or 2 ago. Found here – DIY- Cupcake Stands.
Thank you Cheryl for the opportunity to Guest Blog, It was lots of fun!! 🙂

These are SO adorable! I know my son would love these, he loves to go fishing. I’m going to make them for his next fishing trip with his daddy. I keep baked and frosted cupcakes in a Cup-A-Cake in the freezer, so it would be quick to make two up for them to take with them.

Those cupcakes are adorable. Love the guest post.
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog the other day. I really appreciate it.
These cupcakes are just adorable, thanks for sharing! If you have time, can you share what number frosting tip that is? My girls are bringing decorated cupcakes to our 4-H Foods Revue and I think we might need to add that tip to our list of supplies!
Thanks a bunch for your help! Have a great day!
These are so cute!!!!
How adorable are those?! Love getting great ideas from other bloggers. Thanks for sharing your cute cupcakes!
Love these we live in the country on the water and my husband lives for fishing. These will be perfect thanks for the great idea.
So cute!
Super cute and LOVE the cute little pedestals!
I love this! This would be perfect for a shower I’m throwing. Beach theme.
This is cute, and I’m sure kids would have a blast putting these together, but…. real men want cake–not itty bitty cupcakes. 😉
These are adorable! What a fun idea 🙂
My brother is really into fishing, so I will have to make these for him sometime soon. He’ll LOVE them!
I was just thinking about taking hubby and my dad on our boat for a fishing trip for father’s day. These are the cutest! Perfect for our day! thanks for sharing!
