The ears

Today I had fun making a Minnie Mouse headband. I don't think I would be able to wear it out in the big wide world though. Firstly because I am a grown up, or at least pretend to be one in public and secondly they are rather heavy for a hair accessory. I lined the ears with the stuff you use for curtain tie backs to keep it stiff and I guess all the material combined is just too much. So, I have decided to throw a fancy dress party soon just so I can wear them for a reason. 

 

The wax candle

Today I made a cake for a guy that loves Pokémon. It was very difficult. I burnt the first attempt and couldn't get the cooked cake out the tins so I am glad this attempt turned out okay. I very much enjoyed using ready to roll icing for the first time. I did cheat slightly though because Betty Crocker helped me make the vanilla frosting for the jam filler bit.  I think I will attempt a My little pony cake next. That will be tonnes of glittery fun.
