I decided to make this shape study thing, a thing! I chose one shape in two different variations and a limited color palette, then I let my imagination run wild coming up with different designs and textures I could try out. In the end I have 17 designs in this set! Watch on for a satisfying time lapse compilation of this whole set :)

I do receive a small commission from items purchased from my shop. I only include items I personally own and love!

Projector: I own both of these projectors. I first owned the Pico and purchased the Bluetooth as an upgrade. If budget is a concern, the Pico gets the job done (just make sure that you're plugging it in correctly!). Otherwise, I recommend the Bluetooth - it has a better/brighter image and connects via Bluetooth.

- Sterling Pearls (metallic dusts like gold): https://bit.ly/3AN5Quh
- DiamonDust (edible glitter!!): https://bit.ly/3sqtZnF
- Elite color (powdered food coloring for painting and dry dusting): https://bit.ly/3xVsb7l
- Master Elites (highly pigmented powders for coloring icing...a MUST for red and black!!): https://bit.ly/3k1L8Af
***Please note: my LEMON royal icing recipe does NOT work with all of the Master Elite colors due to the acidity of the lemon juice -- a VANILLA (non-lemon) recipe is best used for the Master Elite pinks, otherwise I use all of their other colors with my lemon recipe (I use Wilton pink with my lemon recipe)

Color is The Sugar Art Master Elite Burgundy in varying gradations: https://bit.ly/3xUdOA7

I also use the Master Elite in White to make my white brighter: https://bit.ly/3iRqvHF
