    Hi everyone,

    We doing a wedding tree for our wedding (you make a tree from thumb prints) but cannot seem to find waterbased ink pads. Went to the range and they have some but said would not recommend it for hands.

    Flourgirl - What size do you use for the circles to cover the choccy mints?
  • flourgirl
    flourgirl Posts: 3,415 Forumite
    kms I use nesties for cutting the circles and scallops for the ES mints, I have measured them and they are 35mm for the plain and 43mm for the scallop. I don't mind cutting some for you.

    Thank you flourgirl, the reason i was asking is because i have just brought a scallop circle punch that is 2" and was wondering if that would be big enough. Thank you for the offer though

    kms that would be plenty big enough, also big enough for the chocolate coins if you wanted to do some childrens ones. Thats the size I used for some tree decorations using the coins
