One of the things I love about these blogs and forums is how much information one picks up from so many helpful decorators, and how much these hints and tips help. Raewyn is such a sweetheart and a good friend of mine, she stayed with me here in UK last Novemver and we worked together on a group project for Cakes International. We swapped ideas and thoughts and it was just so special to work alongside this wonderful special person and I still have her doggie exhibit next to mine in the guest room
I remeber her tip on using a touch of lilac to take the yellow out of the buttercream, works like a charm. Another tip she gave me was using lemon essence instead of vodka for painting.. It dries quicker with no stickiness, and it sure smells good! Orange essence too :)
It’s great to share knowledge and feels great when you’ve made someone else’s project that much easier because of it.
You must never limit your challenges, instead you must challenge your limits
