I can pretty much take or leave Mardi Gras, but I do like the look of the Venetian Masquerades at Carnival so I whipped up a few mask cookies!
This was a particular moment of madness I doubt I'll repeat anytime soon. And yes, this is actually large enough to use as a real mask!
I had wanted to add some bling to the cookie masks with gold spray but can you imagine none of my local craft stores carry Wilton Color Mist in Gold year round? They've never heard of Mardi Gras? Or St. Patrick's Day? Or Weddings!? Sheesh! Let's just pretend there is some gold happening here okay?
I'll post a little how-to on cutting the masks later! Enjoy your Tuesday!
Beautiful job! I went to a certain large chain craft store looking for Mardi Gras beads and they said they don't carry Mardi Gras merchandise. Yet they have a huge bead department. Go figure!
So happy to be a new follower this morning! I've been a fan on Facebook, don't know how I missed your blog!! I agree about the spray!! I love the pearl for so many reasons and can't believe it's not a year round item!! Next time I'll stock up!
