    Cookidough thats lovely, very neat and doesnt look like a bargain cake at all- well done!

    Just a thought about the ribbons, could you put a yellow or orangy ribbon around teddy's neck to bring it all together? Or maybe use the same ribbon with flower as the lower tier on the upper?

  • cookiedough thats a lovely cake. i love the colour of the ribbon, but without sounding critical I do think it would look better if you carried the colour of the ribbon up to the teddy somehow. but looks good and i'm sure the recipient will be so pleased .

    Hiya,

    for a very close friend who is expecting a suprise i hae decided to make a Bee themed cake, as they have nick named the baby bee!

    Has anyone seen any bee baby things inc a soft toy in your travels?

    Thanks

    I am making a Winnie the Pooh cake for someone and have searched high and low for "bee" items.

    Came across "Burts Bee" toiletries for baby but that has been about it.

    Lovely cakes everybody, especially the newcomers all very good for first attempts! Congrats Moonpenny on the sales!:T

    Bella wow fantastic news! Look out Richard Branson! :T My main tip with pricing is it's hard to increase your prices but alot easier to lower them so start high! If they don't sell at that price then you can look to reduce them.

    I am looking for a yellow blanket or towel. I got my first blanket from Dunelm but they have none left and I don't like Primarks ones. Can anyone help please?

    I have watched the tutorial on the sock roses. I take it it is the same for larger items but how do you get tham as neat as the socks:confused:

    Can anyone post a pic. please?
  • irlrip you will probably have to reduce the width, fold in half before rolling

    yellow hooded bath towels will be easier to find than a yellow blanket. asda, matalan, john lewis etc
