CUTE! May I please know how you tied up the ribbon so perfectly? I've tried doing it but it's just so smooth and silky that it just becomes undone .__.

Wow, I saw the size reference and those are mighty small!

But, now I have a sudden craving for small candy stars and I don't know if any even exist!

Great job!

I keep trying to make those D: I can't get them to puff out correctly and they wind up looking like little blobs :C
And tips?

karatechick13 In reply to Ravengirl9 [2012-01-08 22:25:06 +0000 UTC]

well to start with go bigger than these, start with a strip 2cm wide or 1.5cm wide. Use that card paper (not quite cardboard and not quite paper ) and when you wrap it around make sure it's wrapped tight as this makes the last part easier. Then I use my fingernails to shape the points by pressing in the middle.... It's really hard to explain without showing you... but basically you push in the middle between the two points. and then to make it more shapely I kind of run my finger nail outwards and up from the middle dent..... I really help that hopes, explaining it is hard

Ravengirl9 In reply to karatechick13 [2012-01-09 03:54:02 +0000 UTC]

Thanks c: I'll try wrapping them tighter. I've watched through videos and it SEEMS like I'mdoing things right, but it just won't puff up properlly. Thanks for the tips~

karatechick13 In reply to pinklemonadepirate [2012-01-08 06:09:44 +0000 UTC]

Hehe well the stars are a traditional design and I can't really say that putting anything in bottles is original as it's been done heaps but I did just pick up a little bottle at a market and think that some origami would look good in it. ^.^ So I guess I made it up...

When I saw this picture in the thumbnail I though the stars were actually candy 0_o. Good thing I didn't see this in real life, might have tried to eat them

karatechick13 In reply to Psychoneurotic-Alice [2012-01-08 06:01:47 +0000 UTC]

Hehehe thanks! But don't worry, the lid's glued on (or will be when sold) so that they can look delicious without the fear or being eaten!

Psychoneurotic-Alice In reply to karatechick13 [2012-01-08 06:07:12 +0000 UTC]

yah or something like this might have happened:

patient: Doctor, I swallowed a bunch of paper stars!!! D:

doctor: Well why did you do that?

patient: Because I thought they were candies!!!

Doctor:

Lol~

Yeah, that's exactly why I always glue the lids in before selling them!

Hehehe Most welcome! And you're totally right... and that wouldn't be me... I'd never think they were candy... noo....

Psychoneurotic-Alice In reply to karatechick13 [2012-01-08 06:20:35 +0000 UTC]

lol my friend would totally mistake them for candies... and she WOULD eat them too. I swear she'll pretty much eat anything, except for pizza... and bacon... and most chocolates ._.

Psychoneurotic-Alice In reply to karatechick13 [2012-01-08 06:34:52 +0000 UTC]

She says she doesn't like how it taste (and yet I catch her eating it sometimes ) Well she is a compulsive liar, one time she said actually told me and and a friend that she was dyslexic and she gets high grades in all of her classes =_=. Doesn't sound like dyslexia to me :/

karatechick13 In reply to Psychoneurotic-Alice [2012-01-08 07:13:22 +0000 UTC]

Hehehe see?? Anyone who says they don't like chocolate is lying and you never know with the dyslexia thing. It really depends on the severity

Psychoneurotic-Alice In reply to karatechick13 [2012-01-08 07:23:30 +0000 UTC]

I guess you're right about the dyslexia, I wouldn't know never researched or met anyone with it. But yah people who say they hate chocolate probably are liars >. How can anyone resist it, it's so delicious *_* *eats chocolate doughnut*

karatechick13 In reply to Psychoneurotic-Alice [2012-01-08 07:27:25 +0000 UTC]

Hehe I know quite a bit about it, I know a couple of people who have it, but thankfully not really severely. And totally agree with the chocolate! *wants chocolate now*

Psychoneurotic-Alice In reply to karatechick13 [2012-01-08 07:32:54 +0000 UTC]

Glad I made you want chocolate now I don't know, she gets straight A's in all her classes (I know this because she brags about them a lot >_>) but then she's pretty much an air head when we're not in class.
