I finished! It took a long time!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

I had a hard time with make it ruffly. At the bottom, I found advice online about make it out of cut "donut circles" and that really increased my ruffles! And let it dry long enough...my bottom ruffles fell b/c I was impatient! And cornstarch your fondant a lot - it kept getting stuck in the rollers!
