AI have been working on a competition piece for the past 6 weeks. I have just been glazing my teapot and dropped it placing it back on the stand! The competition is Friday week!:cry:

Awwww man, I feel so sorry for you sugarflorist. I hate when stuff like that happens. Do you think that it will dry in time if you make another one?

:( That made my stomach twist, and it didn't even happen to me.
Are any bits salvageable, or is it a total re-do? What medium are you using?
Sorry that happened to you. I've dropped a tea cup I made (but had a spare), but it wasn't a competition piece.

I have entered for a floral arrangement (minimum of 12 full blooms) most competitors use some sort of vase not made with sugar but I personally feel that it is a cheat to do so. (Even though it is within the rules) and you gain extra points for making the effort. Really trying for a gold this time. So far I have achieved three silver awards.
Each competitor starts with 100 points and that gets reduced with each fault. So scores are banded. It does not work on gold being 1st . It workes on the points each entry gains. Then there is a best in show a 1st 2nd and 3rd all of whom get a monetary prize. So really you are always trying to beat your last score.
It is really cutting it fine enga, I know I can get the paste dry but not sure about the "glue", plus the sanding and the decoration and colour! Might just have to go with white china which means making a new cup and saucer too because I have already coloured that, but not got enough left to colour a teapot. At this I need tea and sympathy because I am feeling really sorry for myself. Looks like I have a long night remaking
You can do it girl, I know you can! I'm sending you some of my
