Holiday decorations

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

These are cake balls I baked from the Wilton ball pans. I used icing to connect the two halves together & ONLY crumb coat the balls, then freeze.

I used a slightly thicker fondant to cover 1/4 thick and as any other technic, carefully use your hands to press the fondant around until you are at the bottom of the cake ball. cut out about 1/2 around the call and carefully; without pulling, press the fondant to close the opening.

I used airbrush paint to draw on the calls after it dried a little then added some silicone molds or edible gems.

Sorry if I sound I bit off on my directions, went through surgery and my wonderful meds are finally kicking in...LOL

These ornament cakes look fantastic! They would be great to bring to the family get together on New Years as everyone expects something very special from me.
