Hi, I'm not sure how to explain this, but the rollers come enclosed in a case with a handle. The original intended use is for embosing paper, so there is a knob on the side that you twist to move the paper from one side to the other. I had a hard time getting the rollers out, so I threw the whole thing on the ground to break it apart! I hope I'm making a little sense!

I want to go back to the lower 48! We don't have a Dollar Tree here, man this sucks. There are good things and bad things about Alaska. But myhome is in Georgia and I can't wait to get back there someday.

aww man, i was just there, looking for the cake takers someone else mentioned (which they didn't have). i didn't even think to look in the scrapping section. maybe i'll have to go back. i did find flowers and ribbon for my easter bonnet cake and a huge bottle of hand sanitizer. lol

thanks for the tip.

I have seen those there, and never thought to use them in that way, very creative. Good job to your sis for scouting them out for you!

bummer - I saw these last week and did immediately think cake (as I do so often!!!) but couldn't quite see how I would feed the fondant through them. never thought of breaking them! Great idea! Unfortunately they were $10NZ each. So I can't justify splurging and buying the whole set, but maybe one or two....

Darn. Went to the Dollar Tree today and they only had the tulip and the bear, neither of which I wanted. Bummer. I had never been in that store before, so I ended up picking up a lot of neat little things.

I think those are items that they re-stock. Because the 1st time I went they only had 2 kinds, went back they had more. Check with them again later.

How exciting I just bought the tulip and bear ones. There are like 2 or 3 more Dollar Trees in town that I'm going to search.

Just wanted to say something about dollar tree. Just incase any of you did notknow this but you can order items from them in bulk. If it is something you really want a lot of you can order them and have them shipped to your nearest store. They will sell by the case if you order from them.
