My First Macaroons

I consider myself all thumbs when it comes to working with polymer clay. I've tried all of the easy foods – peas, carrots, bread – and they all turn out looking like a mess. Yes, it is true, I cannot make little round peas look good.

That's why I admire the work of food artisans. I can sit and stare at Peiwen's (Oiseau deNim) fantastic creations for hours. So when I found out that she was teaching a class on CDHM, I jumped at the opportunity to sign up. I was not disappointed. She is a wonderful teacher; her explanations and photos were spot on.

So although my macaroons are a bit wonky, thanks to Peiwen, they look better than my peas!
