oh Goreti, it is so beautifull!! How clever of you to use a shell for a veiner ! :) I have to try that – We have had sooo many days of rain too!!

HE is my rock and my strong tower

Jan, I have very few cutters and only 1 veiner which is the inexpensive Wilton one. Don’t want to spend a lot of money since I only do this for fun. Therefore, I looked for things that I have around the house that I can use instead. The center is actually a large glass bead that was on a shirt. If you look at it closely, there is a tiny hole on the sides since it was sewn on the shirt.

I like it!!! It’s lovely Goreti!!! And very clever of you!!! Well done!!xxx

hi Goreti! This is beautiful!…
I hear your humidity/moisture problem. I have been drying my gumpaste flowers on the shelf on top of my husband’s television armoire.. silly way to do it, and my husband hates me on this. but i have been doing that for years now, it is a dry place and the constant temperature keeps the pieces to place. Just last night, I needed to dry a gumpaste chair which needed to dry overnight, it has been raining here in nj and the humidity is playing tricks on me. I just shoved the piece in the armoire shelf and was ready to go this morning…

what beautiful Goreti and wonderful that color

I only do this for my family and friends, so I know where you’re coming from. I don’t buy a lot of cutters anymore, did that enough when I first started cake decoating. I definitely am going to use a shell for veining when I get time to work on a specialty flower!!

Jan, another great thing to use is a dry corn husk. That is what I used for the camellia. As a matter of fact, just bought some corn on the cob yesterday and have some drying right now.

Gorgeous !!

Another great tip!! Gotta try that as we are having corn on the cob also for the 4th. Thanks :)

You are all so sweet. Funny thing is that when I finished I was not too impressed with it. I just thought it was ok. Wasn’t even sure if I should post it. Thank you for making me see it with a different light. I am always so impressed by your works and always amazed when you take the time to comment on my efforts.

Great job Goreti!!
So pretty!! Xx
