DIY wedding topper project [completed - flash on page 2]

Your mini-me looks amazing so far. Much better finish than the ones I recieved & paid alot for! It will look better with the flowers & a basic face, but as you said, no need to go overboard. Well done.

Thank you ?

Yeah I'll probably just add flowers and maybe just some little eyes, but not the full face. I didn't want to add too much detail to my dress either as didn't want to give anything away to the H2B ?

Wow, the mini you looks amazing! You are very clever and you know you have one of a kind toppers

It looks great x

It looks great x

You look/she looks lovely! You are a crafty one !

It looks great, i do wonder if arms woudl be a good thing or not im undecided about that

Great start, looking forward to seeing them progress.

I think without arms...I think...ooh I don't know it's tricky!

Thanks for the feedback ? I think I will photoshop some arms on to see what it looks like. I guess they would help to support the flowers as well ?

Ok here is a photoshop mockup of how she might look with arms, flowers and just eyes.

That looks fab!! Definitely add arms and flowers!

I think I'm going to make my own too. Did you use play doh?

Looks good! My business started with me making my own toppers for my wedding ?

The only thing I would say is that the skin around the chest and back seems to come further out than the white of the dress?

Thank you ? yeah it does a little bit, but it is still rough at the moment ?

And I've used fimo (polymer clay)

Kharv we all have overhang- or I do anyway ? These are really stunning. I'd have paid you to make me some if you were about last year!

Me more than most! ?

Lol! and thank you ? I'm just working on the flowers at the moment. They won't be perfect but they'll be a nice keepsake I think ? Will need to start on a mini H2B soon!

Well here she is at the moment with arms, flowers and eyes. I was going to blend the arms in but think it looks quite cute like this ? I've tried to smooth out some of the overhang as well. She is only tiny so hopefully people wont be looking at her too closely to notice the imperfections.

She/you look fab! love the personalised toppers. Depending on which cake I choose I'd like some, they're all so cute!

That's perfect the main thing is to know when to stop adding details. I think if you wanted to try to add any more I would make a 2nd one so that this one stays perfect.

Thank you ? I agree she doesn't need any more details, so I'll keep her like this. Next challenge will be the H2B ?

Wow, she looks very cute ?

Did you find it fairly easy to use the flimo clay? I am considering making our cake toppers, but animals rather than little people

You have done a fantastic job! If it were me I would fine it hard to make the hubby as nice as me....only joking! (honest ?)!!

Really good! Well done!

Well I finally got round to completing 'LeedsGroom' - don't they look cute together? ?

Aaaaw they're sooo cute!!! You've got quite a skill there!

Brilliant! He looks just (but only just cause he is a bloke and you are a girly) as cute as you!

? Well bloomin' done!

When I saw your flashes earlier I meant to ask about whether you were going to be on the top of the cake by yourself! Good to see you now have a groom!

They look great! Well done

Aww thank you so much! ?

Luckily he shaves his head so didn't have to worry about hair ? (I just did some dots)

Looks amazing, well done you!!

They are really fab! You are clever x

They look fantastic! I cant wait for your wedding report ?

Aww, love these!

Has hubby to be seen these or know you've made them?
