I thought my fellow CCers could laugh with me on this. I made my first gum paste shoe last night. Well, my 3yo daughter just came crying saying she broke her new fancy shoe she found, she was devistated. That fancy shoe was my first gum paste shoe(good thing it was just a practice shoe). She thought it was a dress up shoe and actually tried it on. I guess gum paste just isn't ment to be worn!

If I had been watching her and not surfing CC I would have missed out on the whole traumatic experience because it never would have happened. Thank goodness for CC!

That is one way to look at it. I reassured her that we could find some new dress up shoes at the store that won't break. The whole thing was so innocent and cute! But then I am her mom so it would be to me.

My 2yo tried eating my first gumpaste baby booties. She always takes little pieces of fondant when i make cake so she thought it was the same....She was pretty disdapointed with the taste icon_lol.gificon_lol.gif

adorable story AND that is a compliment to you! Children will tell you straight out if something doesn't look like something. She REALLY thought it was a shoe! That is awesome! Good job apparently, post it next time before she wears it!

That's really sweet! I just love those moments with our kids that just melt our hearts and make us love them even more. (I need to remind myself of those moments when trying to herd small kids out of the house to get to school on time. icon_redface.gif )

I did post a pic of it last night in hopes to get some constructive critisism.
If you want to see it pre smashed here is a short cut(Iwould still love some suggestions on how to make it better).
