out just to see how they might look,
they have worked out around 8p each.
my nieces are due up so we will have a go
at doing the rest between us.

Jadeben the only reason we did not use
bath pearls was because we could not
figure out a way of setting them in
place on the top of the cake,also
the cheapest localy was 30p each.

Well done on your first cake! And NO it isn't naff!!! I use floristy cellophane (bought from Flower Hour shop on ebay) and cut it to the size needed but you can use cello bags instead - ebay would sell them but not sure what size you'd need, sorry.:wave: If you want the rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain :wave:0 -
A tip for you ..... Stand still whilst holding a camera! ha ha! nah only joking sorry. Mine also arrived this morning, although my pins haven't arrived as yet and I haven't started to make any yet! Looks lovely.
Cello bags can be bought from ebay, or from http://www.flowerhour.co.uk/?gclid=CLXW8t210ZQCFRoVEAodeTnpkwRaising kids is like being held hostage by midget terrorists0 -
