Suggestion to make it look any better?

The only directions were colorful and bright with strips and circles.

Any suggestion?
TIA

I think it will look just fine once you finish the color balls at the bottom. thumbs_up.gifthumbs_up.gif I like the colorfullness of it too.

I agree. Once you finish the colored balls on the bottem it will look great.

It's certainly not an ugly cake. thumbs_up.gif

See how it looks after you finish putting the color balls all the way around the bottom.

If you still don't like it, you might take off those fondant swags and just cover the sides that are still white with more of those 2 tone circle/dots. Just sort of a random pattern.

Keep at it, sometimes what we end up with looks even nicer than what we had in mind at first. And, fortunately, the customer never sees what was in our heads, LOL.

You could add another swag so that there's two hanging down instead of one between each circle. Maybe some random circles to add movement to the design. Maybe some very small circles dotted here and there? Keep on going, it's a good start and we all look foward to seeing it when it's done

I like the cake as well. Continue with the balls around the base, it looks great with the multi colors. Mayve add some open cirlces with a different color corcle inside around the cake.

You may have better luck removing the swags.

You could incorporate a dot look with the strip you already have on their. Use a round cookie cutter to nick away a portion of a circle and then place a circle of a nother color into the nick. You can do this different sizes and colors.

I like it though, don't get down yourself!

you could even use gumballs for the base if you get tired of rooling fondant
