When it comes to sugar modelling paste I’m a beginner, but as you can see the buttons look good, so they cannot be difficult 🙂
I used ready-made sugar modelling paste, I bought it in several colors at once, so as not to play with the dyes. Play with the mass in your hands so that it gets more formable. Then put it into a mold to get the desired shape. It’s quite hard to get the buttons out without damaging the center holes, so it’s a good idea to let them dry and stiff for a while.
I dreamed of golden buttons, so I treated the yellow ones additionally with golden food spray.
Ready sugar buttons look really cute 🙂

Nothing gives more satisfaction than doing something yourself. I haven’t even thought about DIY as my hobby, I’ve just done different “projects” when it was needed. Sometimes it’s a disguise for the Masquerade Party in kindergarten. Another time, cutting out the pumpkin and baking the witch’s fingers for Haloween. Or simply organizing holiday souvenirs. Now I decided to share my realizations with you. Let’s go it together!
