Designer bag

Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Designer Handbag Cakes »

Difficulty:

Category: Cake Decorating

Type of item: Functional

For: Women

Style: Classic


What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Take your time, plan well ahead.
Make handles early enough for them to harden. I made handles too late, therefore had to alter shape.
Have picture of bag/purse close by to refer to.

Thank you everyone. @ saetta, I bought the crocodile embossing mat from the cake decorating company here in UK, the impression mat listed in the materials for this craftsy course seems better asit is flexible. Follow the steps in the course closely and definitely use the lustre dust/ paint as directed, it brings out the design. I highly recommend the designer hand bag course, in fact the cake decorating courses here are excellent. I have learnt knew skills as a hobbyist.
