In case you need a last minute inspiration for Monday, here I am… Starting simple, the shamrock shape in a smily version.

All you need to do is paint with black pen the area of the smile, flood the rest with green. Immediately add the little candy eyes and the gold sanding sugar at the edges. Once it all sets, draw the eyebrows and a little line near the mouth.

From Haniela’s tutorial of a while back (2021), a little more involved, but so so cute… You can watch her detailed instructions with a click here.

It starts with the piping of a grid…. And preparation of a few shades of green icing, plus white.

Then fill the squares that are not touching, and add the wet-on-wet details….

Here they are with a super simple gnome made with the candy corn shape, which I love…

And of course, how could I not include a little golf design in this post?

    Love the little “quilted” circles. And OF COURSE the shamrocks are just darling. I knew you had a little bit of an Irish heart! McKenna love heading your way!

    That top shamrock is saying it the best . . . Oh, I do love the ‘Oirish’ I nearly married one (awfully proudly bog-Irish!) and wish he was still arround so I could send this to him! Oh, I know . . . 🙂 !!!
