that's really cool, never seen this before, how did you do it?

Your roses are beautiful, you are too hard on yourself.

how did you get them to stay in the pail? what do you have inside the pail. i think your roses look great!

That is sooo CUTE! It took me a minute to figure out where the mini cupcakes were LOL. I LOVE your roses, I have such a hard time with them. It's going right into my favorites. How are they in the pail? On skewers? Was it difficut to do? OK enough rambling! GREAT JOB!!

What a great idea. I think you are on to something here. "Mini Cupcake Bouquet" Really pretty.

I think your roses are wonderful!

thanks you so much for all your compliments.......all I did was took a piece of styrofoam (would be much easier with a big foam ball by the way but I was working spur of the moment) and I just carved the foam into a dome shape, covered in pink tissue paper (asthestics) and then stuck toothpicks into the foam and stuck the cupcakes onto the toothpicks!! Instead of frosting the cupcakes I just made a rose on the tops, like using the top of the cc as a flower nail sort of! Then put leaves to cover gaps

would love to try this for teacher appreciation next week....would you mind if I copy your idea??

absolutely not.........I'm very flattered you'd want to.....go for it and if you have any ?'s don't hesitate to pm me

thanks so much!!! will definitely pm ya if I need some advice!!!

I tried making something like this and the cupcakes just kept falling off of the toothpicks. Any tips on how to get them to stay on? My roses also kept falling off 8O

well, I did figure out that it was easier to stick the cc in place and then poke the toothpick into the center of it!

as for the rosees.........I gave my cc a thin coat of bc before piping the roses on....it's also important to make sure your "dome" of styrofoam isn't too steep...just nice and rounded off...like half of a foam ball

Super job :)

you are crazy your roses are beautiful
